Ultrasound measurements may help predict preterm birth
The study highlights the significance of fetal adrenal morphometry, focusing on the fetal zone depth-to-total gland depth ratio and corrected adrenal gland volume, as effective predictors of impending preterm delivery. These metrics provide insight into the endocrinological activity of the gland, which is linked to the initiation of labor. The findings suggest that ultrasound measurements of these parameters can significantly improve the risk stratification process in clinical settings. Cureus (1/21)
