Fetal Doppler sonography of the umbilical artery, the fetal aorta, the middle cerebral artery, the ductus venosus and the umbilical vein is used for the management of fetuses [...] valve blood flow (TR) and ductus venosus blood flow (DV). In addition, the Doppler of the uterine arteries is determined. A structured early diagnosis of malformation is carried out. A comprehensive medical [...] retardation and indicates when the fetuses should be delivered. Doppler sonography of the uterine arteries around 20 weeks' gestation indicates the risk of developing a growth retarded unborn child, premature

data can be assessed in this neonatal mouse model in which the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) is ligated within the first week after birth. These tools allow us to validate novel candidates
