Echogenic fetal bowel may be observed in fetuses with normal outcomes, but may also be a marker for diseases such as cystic fibrosis, congenital infection, chromosomal anomalies, and intraamniotic bleeding. This finding can be observed on prenatal ultrasound. The echogenicity has been classified as either focal or multifocal. Grade 2 suggests that echogenicity is equal to bone whereas grade 3 suggests that it is greater.
