Placental quantitative susceptibility mapping and T2* characteristics for predicting birth weight in healthy and high-risk pregnancies
Placental dysfunction in high-risk pregnancies is evaluated using MRI T2* values. Lower T2* values significantly correlate with pre-eclampsia and fetal growth restriction. T2* MRI may predict birth weight, enhancing prenatal care outcomes.
