Doppler-Sonografie in der Schwangerschaft – Schritt für Schritt

Die Doppler-Sonografie gibt Auskunft über Blutströmungsmuster und -kurven einzelner Gefäßgebiete. In der Geburtshilfe dient sie bei definierten mütterlichen und fetalen Indikationen der Untersuchung des uteroplazentaren und des fetoplazentaren Kreislaufs sowie der Blutströmungsanalyse intrafetaler Gefäße.
