Overview:听1% of babies are born with severe defects.听These are collectively responsible for over 1/3 of all paediatric hospital admissions. Early intervention, when the baby is still in the womb, in some cases improves outcome in terms of morbidity and mortality.听Guided Instrument for Fetal Therapy and Surgery is a seven-year project in collaboration with KU Leuven, Great Ormond Street Hospital and University College Hospital. We aim to develop low-risk techniques for the diagnosis, treatment and therapy of a range of debilitating abnormalities of the baby during pregnancy.听
