Figure 2 The distribution of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) time-averaged mean velocity (TAMV) in non-anaemic and anaemic fetuses demonstrating the difference between the two groups. Non-anaemic fetuses; median 1.12, interquartile range 3.35, maximum value 4.1, minimum value -0.53. Anaemic fetuses; median 4.09, interquartile range 2.09, maximum value 6.42, minimum value 1.87.
