Umbilical vein to artery ratio in fetuses with single umbilical artery [PDF]
In fetuses with single umbilical artery (SUA) the entire blood flow to the placenta is transported through only one umbilical artery, resulting in a compensatory increase of the arterial diameter. In order to establish whether umbilical vessel size could be used as an additional ultrasonographic criterion for prenatal diagnosis of SUA, we measured ...
