Zusammenfassung

fruscal@libero.it Objective: To compare diagnostic accuracy of quantitative elastography of the cervix, Bishop score (BS) and ultrasound functional cervical length (FCL) in the prediction of a successful labor induction. Methods: Prospective pilot study including patients undergoing labor induction with vaginal prostaglandins (Dinoprostone) between July 2010 and June 2011, without preterm membrane rupture. Bishop-score, ultrasound cervical length and cervical tissue strain (TS) were assessed before starting induction. The cervical TS was measured as naturalstrain using the TDI-Q (tissue Doppler imaging – Quantif…
