title: Assessment of early placental development in the cynomolgus monkey (Macaca fascicularis) using colour and pulsed wave Doppler sonography.
abstract: Colour flow mapping and pulsed wave Doppler were used to assess the process of placental growth and development in the cynomolgus monkey from 32 to 71 days gestational age. Fetal and maternal vessels were reliably visualised and insonated. Accurate longitudinal non-invasive assessment of placentation is possible using this technique.
