Fetal speckle tracking assesses critical aortic stenosis (AS) in fetuses. Favorable left ventricular function predicts better neonatal outcomes, while impaired function indicates a poor prognosis.
Area of Science:
- Cardiology
- Fetal Medicine
- Echocardiography
Background:
- Critical aortic stenosis (AS) in fetuses poses significant challenges for predicting neonatal outcomes.
- Fetal speckle tracking technology offers novel insights into cardiac function.
