Professional Statement

My primary goals are to promote excellence in clinical care, teaching, and research as it relates to the use of diagnostic imaging in obstetrics and gynecology. I am particularly interested in the development and application of novel imaging technologies in the practice of perinatal medicine.

The delivery of a small for gestational age baby impacts families and health care systems alike although a critical challenge is distinguishing those that are born constitutionally small from those with intrauterine undernourishment that are at increased risk for adverse outcomes. We are developing a new approach for measuring umbilical venous blood flow using 3D ultrasound and Doppler technology during pregnancy. In this study, we aim to determine accuracy, reproducibility, normal reference standards, and circulatory findings in small fetuses, based on 3D umbilical venous flow, to improve our ability for detecting and monitoring pregnancies with suspected growth abnormalities from intrauterine undernourishment.
