Prediction of fetal anemia with Doppler measurement of the middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity in pregnancies complicated by maternal blood group alloimmunization or parvovirus B19 infection.
Measurement of middle artery peak systolic velocity by two-dimensional and Doppler ultrasound is a non-invasive method to safely predict low fetal hemoglobin values (100% sensitivitiy and specifity).
