Evaluation of Anterior Middle Brain Structures With Cerebrovascular Flow in Fetuses With Fetal Growth Restriction
Sponsor: Ankara Etlik City Hospital
Summary
The study will be conducted to examine the effects of abnormal growth pattern and cerebrovascular blood flow measurements on fetal frontal lobe development with the advancing ultrasound technology. Antenatal assessment of frontal lobe development will enable clinicians to predict neurodevelopmental problems that may develop postnatally. In addition, this study will examine the effects of FGR on frontal lobe development.
