Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS)

What is TTTS?

Color Doppler images show blood vessel connections on the placenta.

Amniotic fluid volume alters imaging. The large baby on the left (recipient) has increased amniotic fluid, so a clear profile and clear imaging are obtained. The donor, on the right, is tightly wrapped in his membrane and imaging is very indistinct.
