Background: Preeclampsia remains one of the leading causes of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite advances in obstetric care, early identification of women at increased risk continues to be a clinical challenge. Abnormal placentation and impaired spiral artery remodeling are central to the pathophysiology of preeclampsia and precede the onset of clinical disease by several weeks to months. Ultrasound-based markers, particularly placental location and uterine artery D
