Background The objective of this study was to characterize structural changes in the healthy
in vivo placenta by applying morphometric and textural analysis using magnetic resonance …

Decades of research into the molecular mechanisms by which the placenta forms and
functions have sought to improve prevention, diagnosis, and management of disorders of …

Purpose To investigate the ability of three‐dimensional (3D) MRI placental shape and
textural features to predict fetal growth restriction (FGR) and birth weight (BW) for both …

The placenta is essential for normal in utero development in mammals. In humans, defective
placental formation underpins common pregnancy disorders such as pre-eclampsia and …

The placenta mediates physiological exchange between the mother and fetus. In placental
mammals, all placentas are descended from a single common ancestor and functions are …

Workshops are an integral component of the annual International Federation of Placenta
Association (IFPA) meeting, allowing for networking and focused discussion related to …

Background Stillbirth is frequently the result of pathological processes involving the
placenta. Understanding the significance of specific lesions is hindered by qualitative …

Introduction Gross and microstructural changes in placental development can influence
placental function and adversely impact fetal growth and well-being; however, there is a …
