2. Fig. 1
Measurements of placental elasticity index in normal (a) and intra-uterine growth restriction (IUGR) (b) placentas. The color bar is displayed on the left top of the elastographic image. Red represents soft and blue represents hard. The quality graph is displayed on the bottom right of the elastographic image. Placental regions of center, intermediate and edge on which two pins were inserted with each region are shown in normal (c) and IUGR (d) placentas, respectively.

Histopathological findings are shown. (a) Increased syncytial knottings (HE ×100). (b) Delayed villous maturity (HE ×100). (c) Fibrinoid necrosis at vessel wall in decidual vasculopathy (HE ×100). (d) Neutrophil leukocyte infiltration of the chorionic plate diagnosed as chorioamnionitis (HE ×200). (e) Infarction and perivillous fibrin deposits in placental parenchyma (HE ×100). (f) Perivillous fibrin deposition and villitis (HE ×100).
