Figure 10. — Localized area of abnormality: (a) sagittal T₂ single-shot fast spin-echo image demonstrates a complete placenta praevia with a solitary low T₂ signal intensity linear area in keeping with a dark intraplacental band (asterisk). Note the increased vascularity (arrow) along the anterior myometrium. (b) Sagittal T₂ balanced gradient-echo image is confirms the presence of the dark intraplacental band (asterisk) and increased vascularity (arrow). The MRI provided essential pre-delivery information. This placenta came away in a piecemeal fashion with increased blood loss.
