First seen Apr 09, 2026 · Last updated May 20, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study looked at whether a special ultrasound test, called fetal lung elastography, can predict if a preterm baby will develop breathing problems after birth. Researchers measured lung stiffness in 80 unborn babies whose mothers were in preterm labor. They then compared these measurements to see which babies later developed Respiratory Distress Syndrome. The goal is to help doctors identify high-risk babies earlier.
