Fetal adrenal gland size in preeclamptic pregnancies with and without fetal growth restriction: an ultrasonographic assessment
Fetal adrenal gland enlargement, particularly increased cortex width, is associated with preeclampsia and may serve as a noninvasive ultrasonographic biomarker. An adrenal glandthe ratio≥2.8 demonstrates strong diagnostic potential for identifying PE and PE+FGR, offering a valuable tool for early diagnosis and management.
