Abortion and informed consent requirements.
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology 1982 September 2
Supreme Court decisions have liberalized a woman's right to decide whether to obtain an abortion.

This article discusses the legal status of such requirements, their implications for the professional autonomy of physicians, and the role of the medical profession in challenging these restrictions, on its own behalf and in concert with its patients.
