ABSTRACT Measurement of the placental volume during pregnancy can occasionally predict adverse outcomes, including ischemic and restricted conditions in the fetus and placenta later in pregnancy. Three-dimensional (3D) sonographic evaluation of the placental volume during the first trimester is a simple and rapid procedure that is commonly applied, but its use during the second trimester seems to be limited. The placental volume can be obtained within 5 minutes as part of daily clinical practice. Combining screening with the placental volume and other markers can increase the rate of detection of fetal and placental anomalies. In this article, we review the prediction of adverse maternal and fetal outcomes later in pregnancy using 3D sonographic measurement of the placental volume.
