Saving mothers with portable ultrasound

The World Health Organisation recommends all pregnant women should have at least one ultrasound before six months. However, only half of women do in sub-Saharan Africa.

And how AI could overcome the barrier of not having enough trained midwives on the ground.People Fixing The World from the BBC is about brilliant solutions to the world's problems.
