Middle cerebral artery velocity time integral as a predictor of fetal anemia using fetal hemoglobin Bart's disease as study model
MCA-VTI is more accurate compared with MCA-PSV for predicting fetal Hb Bart's disease, which indirectly reflects anemia. This suggests that MCA-VTI could serve as an alternative or adjunct to MCA-PSV for detecting fetal anemia, particularly in cases of Hb Bart's disease and potentially for other etiologies. © 2025 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology.
