Noninvasive electromyometrial imaging of human uterine maturation during term labor

Preventing preterm birth and labor arrest requires safe and accurate uterine contraction monitoring. Here, the authors show that Electromyometrial Imaging (EMMI) can image 3D uterine contraction patterns dynamically in human labor, providing new insights into uterine maturation as labor progresses.
