Comparison of Transvaginal and Transperineal Ultrasonographic Uterocervical Angle Measurements in Low-Risk Pregnancies at 24–34 Weeks’ Gestation [PDF]

Diagnostics
Background: The uterocervical angle (UCA) is a promising ultrasound parameter for predicting preterm birth. Transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) is the gold standard for cervical assessment; however, some patients may decline the procedure due to discomfort or

The predictive role of uterocervical angle in labor outcomes: a narrative review

Minerva Obstetrics and Gynecology
Uterocervical angle (UCA) is the angle between the anterior or posterior uterine wall and the cervical canal, and it has become an unique ultrasonographic marker in the recent years. The predictive role of the UCA in spontaneous preterm births (sPTB) has been examined by numerous authors, however few data are available on UCA as predictor of labor ...
