Comparing placental diffusion in diabetic and healthy pregnant women

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study uses diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI) to assess and compare placental diffusion in pregnant women with uncontrolled diabetes against healthy pregnant women. The goal is to investigate the relationship between placental diffusion and potential fetal hypoxia, which may contribute to fetal death. By identifying changes in placental diffusion, the researchers hope to uncover mechanisms behind fetal damage and develop predictive protocols for at-risk pregnancies.
