A novel approach to multiple anatomical shape analysis: Application to fetal ventriculomegaly.

•A novel approach to analyze relationships between multiple anatomical shapes.•Associations are identified in the embedded space of the joint growth patterns.•Validation on a fetal dataset with ventriculomegaly (VM).•The first work that incorporates both cortical and ventricular shapes to study VM.•New insights into the relationship between fetal VM and cortical folding.
