Objective: it is to examine the reproducibility of 3D power Doppler in the management of intrauterine growth restriction compared with the conventional 2d Doppler. Patients and Methods: This study was performed between Jan 2021 and Feb 2022 and included 100 pregnant women recruited from outpatient clinic at Elgalaa Teaching Hospital, 3D power Doppler US was done for assessment of IUGR and compare the findings with 2D Doppler. Results: it is found that 3D Power Doppler parameters were significant in prediction of poor neonatal outcome regarding development of respiratory complications, neurological complications and IUFD as complications to IUGR comparing to 2D colour Doppler parameters which were non-significant in these cases. Our results also showed that the only parameter of 2D Colour Doppler that showed significance and positive correlation to birth weight among these cases was Middle Cerebral Artery Pulpability Index. Conclusion: 2D Doppler flow-velocity waveforms are of limited value in the prediction of poor neonatal outcome in IUGR except for MCAPI. 3D power Doppler was superior in the diagnosis and prediction of neonatal outcome
