Abstract
|
|
|
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is associated with high perinatal mortality and morbidity. In the fields of obstetrics, Doppler
ultrasound plays a major role in proper assessment and management of FGR. It is appropriate to understand pathophysiology and hemodynamics of FGR prior to clinical application of Doppler velocimetry. Physicians have to keep in mind that FGR has variety of mechanisms, and manifests different courses according to the time of onset. Based on these backgrounds, this article will briefly review methods, hemodynamics and clinical applications regarding Doppler velocimetries for various vessels, and will introduce new concepts of FGR and tools to evaluate growth-restricted fetuses.
