Quantitative analysis of normal fetal brain volume and flow by three-dimensional power Doppler ultrasound.
BACKGROUND Assessment of the fetal brain volume and blood flow is important in the evaluation of fetal growth. We used three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound and power Doppler to assess the fetal brain volume and the blood flow index during normal gestation. The relationships of these parameters were further analyzed. METHODS We assessed the total volume and the blood flow index of the fetal brain...
متن کاملThree-dimensional Power Doppler Ultrasound Study of the Placenta
Advanced ultrasound technology has been a valuable tool in the assessment of placental anatomy and physiology. Con ventional twodimensional (2D) sonography reveals placental morphological characteristics, 2D color Doppler can assess blood flow in the placenta, 2D power Doppler can evaluate placental vascular trees, and threedimensional (3D) ultra sound gives more detailed information on the...
متن کاملFetal Heart Assessment Using Three-dimensional Ultrasound
Cardiac anatomy is complex and often difficult to visualize or comprehend. 3D echocardiography is an area undergoing rapid development that represents a natural extension of conventional sonography methods which require integrating a series of 2D image slices to develop a 3D impression of underlying anatomy or pathology. This paper will review some of the basic concepts behind three-dimensional...
متن کاملAssessment by three-dimensional power Doppler ultrasound of cerebral blood flow perfusion in fetuses with congenital heart disease.
OBJECTIVES To use three-dimensional (3D) power Doppler ultrasound to investigate cerebral blood flow perfusion in fetuses with congenital heart disease (CHD). METHODS The vascularization index (VI), flow index (FI) and vascularization flow index (VFI) in the total intracranial volume and the main arterial territories (middle cerebral artery (MCA), anterior cerebral artery (ACA) and posterior ...
متن کاملAssessment of Fetal Renal Volume Using Three-Dimensional Ultrasound and its Relation to Fetal Growth and Placental Blood Flow
Objective: Intrauterine growth restriction may lead to renal disease and hypertension in adult life. This study was performed to determine whether renal volume differs between fetuses that are intrauterine growth restricted and fetuses that are not. We also aimed to examine the association of fetal blood flow parameters, the amniotic fluid index with the fetal renal volume. Patients and Methods...
