title: Doppler measurements of maternal and fetal blood flow.
abstract: Data accumulated over the last decade suggest that Doppler flow velocity waveforms can be used to study both maternal and fetal circulation. Information obtained with this technique appears useful as a screen for both maternal and fetal risk, as an aid to understanding perinatal anatomy and physiology, and as an adjunct to standard means of fetal surveillance.
