Determination of placental size using two dimensional sonography and its relation with gestational age
Journal Title: MedPulse -International Medical Journal - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 5
Abstract
Introduction: An abnormal placental size has been linked to increased perinatal complications, including IUD and IUGR. Location, size, shape and architecture of placenta are easily ascertained with 2 dimensional technologies. Here we are making an effort to directly relate the size/area of placenta with gestational age which may ultimately give some idea about perinatal complications. The method is simple, rapid making it practical for routine for ante natal care and high risk cases.
