Quantitative sonoelastography of the uterine cervix prior to induction of labor as a predictor of cervical dilation time

Abstract: The approximate Young's modulus is superior to the Bishop score and the cervical length measurements concerning the prediction of cervical dilation time and the risk of prolonged dilation time after induction of labor.

“…After reviewing the full-text of the selected six articles, we excluded two further articles because it was not possible to extract the numbers of TP, FP, FN, and TN for an established score threshold [18,23]. Finally, four studies were included for meta-analysis [19][20][21][22]. In Figure 1, the study selection flow diagram is shown.…”

“…Even though this software was designed for cardiac imaging, its use has been largely established in a lot of other medical fields (hepatology, breast disease, endocrinology, or surgery), working with extrinsic freehand movement of tissue compression exerted through the ultrasound probe [19]. Another method used to estimate the approximate Young's modulus of the anterior cervical lip is by using a reference cap applied on the end of the transvaginal transducer during elastography and using a Voluson E8 Expert scanner with the BT13 and H48681GB software (GE Healthcare Austria, Zipf, Austria) [20]. Although cervical length or Bishop score were considered as comparator tests in the cervical elastography literature, in this study no comparator test was considered for eligibility.…”
