Blood flow calculated in the uterine arteries based on the PixelFlux technique

Andersen, Thea Anett; Arneberg, Helene Caroline (Master thesis, 2017)

Introduction: We aimed to compare two Doppler methods which calculate blood flow in the uterine arteries. We also aimed to explore associations between blood flow with birthweight and with fetal weight-gain/day from ...
