Abstract

Objective: To compare perinatal outcomes between patients with and without abnormal Doppler findings and lactate peak in the fetal brain detected by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1 HMRS) and to assess the feasibility of fetal brain lactate in the prediction of adverse obstetric outcomes in growth-restricted fetuses.
