Doppler measurements of maternal and fetal blood flow

Data accumulated over the last decade suggest that Doppler flow velocity waveforms can be used to study both maternal and fetal circulation. Information obtained with this technique appears useful as a screen for both maternal and fetal risk, as an aid to understanding perinatal anatomy and physiolo...

Summary:Data accumulated over the last decade suggest that Doppler flow velocity waveforms can be used to study both maternal and fetal circulation. Information obtained with this technique appears useful as a screen for both maternal and fetal risk, as an aid to understanding perinatal anatomy and physiology, and as an adjunct to standard means of fetal surveillance.
