Résumé

The first aim was to evaluate feasibility and reproducibility of 2-dimensional ultrasound (2D) shear wave elastography (SWE) of human fetal lungs and liver between 24 and 34weeks of gestation. The second aim was to model fetal lung-to-liver elastography ratio (LLE ratio) and to assess its variations according to gestational age and maternal administration of corticosteroids.
