Magnetic resonance assessment of fetal lung maturity: comparison between signal intensity and volume measurement.

Purpose: We evaluated the associations between gestational age (GA) and lung-to-liver signal intensity ratio (LLSIR) and fetal lung volume (FLV) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Moreover, we evaluated the reproducibility of these measurements.Materials and Methods: LLSIR and FLV were measured...
