title: [Contribution of Doppler in fetal prognosis].
abstract: Uteroplacental and cerebral artery velocimetry is a predictive factor in the outcome of many high-risk pregnancies. Positive predictive value is good for intrauterine growth retardation (complications due to preeclampsia, diabetes or twin pregnancy). Velocimetry is also a predictor of adverse outcome in small for gestational age fetuses and for oligohydramnios but not for anemic fetuses of isoimmune pregnancies or post-term pregnancies.
