Abstract: Introduction and purpose Doppler ultrasound has become a milestone in monitoring maternal and fetal health, offering critical information about blood flow in the placenta, umbilical cord, and fetal organs. Its applications range from assessing placental function to diagnosing complications such as fetal growth restriction, preeclampsia, and fetal anemia. Material and methods This review is based on articles from the PubMed database, published between 2015 and 2024, using keywords such as doppler USG, doppler ultrasound, doppler USG in perinatal care, doppler USG in neonatal care. Results Doppler ultrasound is a very effective and minimally invasive test that detects many pathologies in the perinatal and neonatal period. It allows for early diagnosis of many vascular pathologies, which allows for early treatment Conclusions Doppler ultrasound should be a commonly used test in perinatal and neonatal care. This would avoid some of the complications of these periods, improving survival, and financially relieve the health care system.
