Continuous wave Doppler ultrasound effectively identifies growth-restricted twins in multiple pregnancies. This technique aids in diagnosing both intrauterine growth restriction and twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome.

Area of Science:

Obstetrics and Gynecology
Fetal Medicine
Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

Multiple pregnancies present unique challenges in fetal monitoring.
Accurate assessment of fetal growth is crucial for timely intervention.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the utility of continuous wave Doppler ultrasound in assessing twin fetuses.
To determine if this technique can identify small for gestational age twins in specific conditions.

Main Methods:

Continuous wave Doppler ultrasound was employed.
The study included 76 cases of multiple pregnancies.

Main Results:

The technique proved to be not difficult to perform.
It successfully identified the small for gestational age twin.

Identification was achieved in cases of intrauterine growth failure and twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome.

Conclusions:

Continuous wave Doppler ultrasound is a practical method for evaluating twin fetuses.
This imaging modality aids in the diagnosis of growth discrepancies in multiple gestations.
