Article Synopsis
- Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is the primary cause of perinatal mortality, linked to inadequate oxygen and nutrient exchange in the placenta.
- Novel methods like nanoindentation, optical coherence tomography, and ultrasound are used to assess the 3D structure, material properties, and blood flow of placental villi.
- Understanding these factors could help reveal how changes in placental microvasculature lead to FGR, potentially leading to better diagnosis and treatment options.
