Yes I want to ask on emore question last week scanning was done and also a fetal doppler scan
The results was that
Umbilical artery

Peak systolic 29.9
Ri- 1.00
Pi -1.68

Remark- absent and diastalic

Also the radiologist told that the water content around the baby should be 14cms, but it was only 11cms.

Kindly advise me on doppler scan remarks and also about water content around the baby which is 11cm

Answered by Dr. Som Biswas (8 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
do not worry

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX,

The water content is fine as long as its not less than 5 cms.

Yes its true that 14 is a better number than 11 but both are in the normal range which is 5 to 20 cms.

So do not worry .

As far as your doppler is concerned i would like to see the entire report.

Can you upload the scan of the entire report online here.

I will then be able to see it and give you the correct advise.

Regards,

Dr Som
