What this Trial Is About

Placenta Accreta Spectrum Disorders (PASD) involve abnormal attachment of the placenta to the uterine wall, including placenta accreta, increta, and percreta. These conditions can complicate pregnancy, and accurate antenatal diagnosis is challenging. This research compares two common ultrasound methods, 3D ultrasound with vascular indices and 2D ultrasound with color Doppler, to better diagnose PASD before delivery. The study evaluates 3D placental volume measurements and vascular indices such as vascularization index, flow index, and vascularization flow index using 3D ultrasound. These are compared against 2D ultrasound criteria for placental invasion combined with color Doppler imaging. Both methods use ultrasound technology to assess placental attachment and blood flow patterns, aiming to improve diagnostic accuracy. Participants will be pregnant women diagnosed with placenta previa. Researchers will assess the placental characteristics using both ultrasound techniques. The main outcome measure is the vascular index evaluated after one month. The study focuses on comparing these imaging methods to aid in managing placenta accreta spectrum disorders, supporting clinical decisions before delivery.
