A new scoring system for the assessment of fetal neurological status, Kurjak antenatal neurodevelopmental test (KANET), has been recently published in several journals. Test is based on prenatal assessment of fetal behavior by three-dimensional/fourdimensional (3D/4D) sonography. Assessment of fetal behavior gave a promising opportunity to understand the hidden function of the developmental pathway of the fetal central nervous system. This new test has been proposed by the Zagreb group based on the several years of research. In this review we present the most significant results of the Zagreb group which led to construction of KANET test, basic presumptions of the KANET, and our published results on KANET.
