METHOD OF VISUALIZING VASCULAR BED OF PLACENTA WITH USE OF MULTISPIRAL COMPUTER TOMOGRAPHY-ENGINIOGRAPHY Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC A61K33/00 A61B6/03 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medicine, namely obstetrics, and can be used to visualize the vascular bed of the placenta with an assessment of the spatial configuration of the vessels. For this, after delivery, the puncture of the umbilical cord of the placenta is successively performed with an injection needle using separate syringes. Then, an aqueous solution of contrast agent "Ultravist" is injected in a dose of 60 ml at terminated pregnancy and at a dose of 20–40 ml with premature pregnancy. 10–15 minutes after the administration of the contrast preparation, a multispiral computed tomography scan with a cut thickness of 0.5 mm is performed, followed by the construction of three-dimensional and multiplanar reconstructions of the placenta vascular bed.

EFFECT: invention provides visualization of arterial and venous architectonics of the placenta without laborious preparation before the study and can be used in clinical practice.
