Placental Stiffness Measured by Sonoelastography in Fetal Growth Restriction
Placental sonoelastography stands out as a powerful, non-invasive technique that could significantly enhance the clinical assessment and surveillance of pregnancies at risk for FGR, potentially leading to more timely and effective interventions. This quantitative measure not only distinguishes FGR cases from healthy pregnancies with high accuracy but also correlates with meaningful neonatal outcomes.
