Determination of placenta location in third trimester of pregnancy by ultrasonography

Objective: Placenta is an important organ for communication of mother and fetus, and the main route of nutritional intake and excretion of fetal waste matter. Placenta localization is very important for invasive diagnostic and therapeutic procedures on the uterus (Amniocentesis, cordecentesis, cesar...
