Wave reflections in the umbilical artery measured by Doppler ultrasound as a novel predictor of placental pathology

Wave reflections in the umbilical artery measured by Doppler ultrasound as a novel predictor of placental pathology

Background: The umbilical artery (UA) Doppler pulsatility index is used clinically to detect elevated feto-placental vascular resistance. However, this metric is confounded by variation in fetal cardiac function and is only moderately predictive of placental pathology. Our group developed a novel ul...
