New ultrasound technique could spot dangerous placenta condition earlier

NCT ID NCT02302573

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether a special ultrasound using contrast dye can better diagnose placenta accreta, a condition where the placenta grows too deeply into the womb and can cause severe bleeding after birth. Researchers studied 80 pregnant women at high risk for this condition. The goal was to see if this imaging method is more accurate than current standard tests.
