This atlas and the linked publication [1] aim to give a visual overview over T2-weighted anatomical imaging and T2* relaxometry placental data. Both have been widely used in the last years to assess placental structure and function in-vivo [2-10].
Data from healthy controls is displayed over GA, different acquisition choices and possible dynamic effects are depicted and placentae from different cohorts affected by complications are shown.
Display description: All placentae are shown in maternal coronal plane (See A). The slice with the largest placental volume was chosen. The same colormap was chosen for all placentae (See B).
