Accuracy of sonographic estimation of fetal head circumference

SONOGRAPHIC ACCURACY OF FETAL HEAD CIRCUMFERENCE MEASUREMENT: A facility based prospective cross sectional study

Sonographic estimation of fetal weight in term pregnant women

Introduction: Deviation from normal fetal weight and growth contribute to morbidity and mortality in the perinatal period. Over 50 formulas for EFW (estimated fetal weight) have been published and yet the ideal formula has not been determined. The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of sonographic estimation of fetal weight using Hadlock formula in comparison to birth weight....

Sonographic accuracy of estimated fetal weight in twins.

OBJECTIVES We aimed to determine the accuracy of sonographic formulas for estimating birth weight in twin pregnancies. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study of consecutive twin pregnancies undergoing sonography at within 1 week of delivery. Pregnancies were included if biometric measurements and birth weight were available and excluded if anomalies were present. Estimated fetal we...

Automatic Estimation of Fetal Abdominal Circumference from Ultrasound Images

Ultrasound diagnosis is routinely used in obstetrics and gynecology for fetal biometry, and owing to its timeconsuming process, there has been a great demand for automatic estimation. However, the automated analysis of ultrasound images is complicated because they are patient-specific, operatordependent, and machine-specific. Among various types of fetal biometry, the accurate estimation of abd...

Ultrasonographic estimation of fetal weight--residents accuracy.

The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the accuracy of gynecology and obstetrics residents when performing ultrasonographic estimation of fetal weight. The total of 400 ultrasonographic estimations of fetal weight and corresponding neonatal weight were collected and divided into 3 groups according to physicians' experience (junior and senior residents, staff physicians). The accura...
