3D Doppler ultrasound of placental blood flow in the prediction of a missed miscarriage

Resumo

Reduced placental vasculature was revealed using 3D Doppler ultrasound at 8—14 weeks' gestation in 25 women who had missed miscarriages in 2—6 weeks. The values of placental vascularization index below 10,8% and vascularization flow index less than 3,6 at 8—14 weeks' gestation are predictors of missed miscarriages and early placental insufficiency.
