In Vivo Quantification of Placental Insufficiency by BOLD MRI: A Human Study

Abstract Fetal health is critically dependent on placental function, especially placental transport of oxygen from mother to fetus. When fetal growth is compromised, placental insufficiency must be distinguished from modest genetic growth potential. If placental insufficiency is present, the physici...
