Article Synopsis
- An abnormal decrease in placental weight is associated with serious perinatal issues like intrauterine fetal demise (IUFD) and fetal growth restriction (IUGR).
- Current methods for assessing placental weight prenatally using advanced three-dimensional imaging are costly and complex.
- A new approach using two-dimensional ultrasound allows for quick and simple estimation of placental volume, showing a strong correlation with actual placental weight, indicating potential for routine use in prenatal care to reduce complications.
