Primary outcomes

  1. Evolution over 48 hours of the fetal lung elasticity coefficient measure in kilopascals (kPa) (compared to the fetal liver)

    Time frame: For pretern larbor group: day of hospitalization for preterm labor, then 2 days later. For control group, both measurements at 2-day intervals

    The dates of elastography exams controls patients will be distributed a week of amenorrhea (WA) between 24 and 34 WA.
