Prediction of Perinatal Outcome in Fetuses Suspected to Have Intrauterine Growth Restriction: Doppler US Study of Fetal Cerebral, Renal, and Umbilical Arteries

Abstract

In suspected IUGR, while an abnormal UA PI is a better predictor of adverse perinatal outcome than an abnormal MCA or RA PI, a normal MCA PI may help to identify fetuses without major adverse perinatal outcome, especially before 32 weeks gestational age.
