Interest of Measuring Lung Elasticity ELASTOgraphy in the Fetus in the Case of PreMAture Childbirth Threat (ELASTOMAP)

The objective of the study was to evaluated the feasibility and reproducibility of the measurement of lung elasticity report / fetal liver according to gestational age in a group of patients with a normal course of pregnancy and in a group of Patients at risk of preterm delivery.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Evolution over 48 hours of the fetal lung elasticity coefficient measure in kilopascals (kPa) (compared to the fetal liver)
Time Frame: For pretern larbor group: day of hospitalization for preterm labor, then 2 days later. For control group, both measurements at 2-day intervals
The dates of elastography exams controls patients will be distributed a week of amenorrhea (WA) between 24 and 34 WA.
For pretern larbor group: day of hospitalization for preterm labor, then 2 days later. For control group, both measurements at 2-day intervals
