Determinants of adverse perinatal outcome in high-risk women with abnormal uterine artery Doppler images

Objective The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prognostic role of placental ultrasound imaging at 19-23 weeks of gestation in clinically high-risk women with abnormal uterine artery Doppler (UTAD). Study Design Placentas of 60 women with abnormal UTAD were examined at 19-23 weeks of gestati...

Summary:Objective The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prognostic role of placental ultrasound imaging at 19-23 weeks of gestation in clinically high-risk women with abnormal uterine artery Doppler (UTAD). Study Design Placentas of 60 women with abnormal UTAD were examined at 19-23 weeks of gestation for shape and texture abnormalities. Findings were correlated with clinical outcomes (preterm delivery at
