Objectives The main goal was to develop a reproducible method for estimating the diffusion
of water in human fetal lung tissue using diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI). A secondary …

Purpose To evaluate the feasibility of using diffusion‐weighted magnetic resonance imaging
(DW‐MRI) to assess the fetal lung apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) at 3 Tesla (T) …

Objective To assess if a correlation is present between apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC)
values and normal lung maturation during gestation to define potential reference values as …

To quantify apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) changes in fetuses with normal lungs and to
determine whether ADC can be used in the assessment of fetal lung development. In 53 …

The aim of this study was twofold: First, to establish the normal range of fetal lung diffusion
values measured during healthy pregnancy; and second, to determine whether fetal lung …

Objective To prospectively determine apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values of normally
developing fetal lungs over gestation, as obtained by diffusion‐weighted (DW) magnetic …

Purpose To compare two-dimensional ultrasonography (2D US) and three-dimensional
ultrasonography (3D US) in the assessment of normal fetal lung volume. Methods A cross …

Objectives An accurate and reliable method for measuring fetal lung volumes would be
helpful in predicting the outcome in cases with suspected impaired lung growth. Recent …

Objective To establish the normal parameters of fetal lung development at different
gestational ages and to study their correlation with gestational age, thereby providing …

Antenatal diagnosis of abnormal pulmonary development has improved significantly over
recent years because of progress in imaging techniques. Two-dimensional ultrasound is the …
