This study uses ultrasound to tell the difference between two conditions that can happen after a C-section: when the placenta grows into the uterus (placenta accreta) and when the surgical scar opens (uterine dehiscence). It may help doctors give better care to pregnant women in their third trimester who have a low-lying placenta.
This study uses ultrasound to measure the thickness of the placenta and nearby uterus in pregnant women with a condition called placenta accreta, to see if these measurements can help predict how much bleeding might happen after delivery.
This study tests whether a special ultrasound with contrast dye can help doctors see the small blood vessels in the uterus right after birth. It may improve understanding of the uterus and help prevent bleeding.
