BACKGROUND An abnormally soft cervix could contribute to the pathophysiology of cervical
shortening and cervical insufficiency. Multiple techniques to measure cervical softness have …

Background We previously demonstrated that pregnant women with a history of cervical
insufficiency had a softer anterior cervical lip, shorter cervical length and wider endocervical …

Objectives The aim of this study was to assess the value of cervical strain elastography and
Cervical Sliding Sign (CSS) for predicting spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB). Methods In our …

The prediction of induction of labor continues to be a paradigm nowadays. Bishop Score is
the traditional widely spread method but with a low reliability. Ultrasound cervical …

Objectives To compare longitudinal changes in cervical length (CL) and mean cervical
shear wave elastography (CSWE) scores between women with singleton and twin …

Abstract Introduction TVS (Transvaginal Sonography) guided Cervical strain elastography
(CSE) is now available in tertiary referral centers of LMICs (Low-and Middle-Income …

Background: Premature cervical softening and shortening may be considered an early
mechanical failure that predispose to preterm birth. Purpose: This study aims to explore the …

(1) Background: Cervical elastography is a new concept that could allow clinicians to assess
cervical consistency in various clinical scenarios. We aimed to evaluate the predictive …

Deep learning methods have impacted a wide number of fields, and interest in its
applications to clinical medicine continues to grow. Interpretable and uncertainty-aware …

ObjectiveWe aimed to show whether elastography can be analternative, although the
Bishop score used in the follow-up of labor induction success with oxytocin is a relative …
