Three Dimensional Power Doppler Ultrasound in Assessment of Placental Volume and Blood Flow and its Correlation with Severity of Pre-Eclampsia

Background: Pre-eclampsia [PE] is a main reason for maternal and perinatal morbidities and mortalities. Three-dimensional power Doppler ultrasound [3DPD-US] methods nowadays give a noninvasive way of evaluating placental vascularization, flowing and vascularization-flowing indices. The specially des...
