The assessment of foetal growth.
I must make it clear that the foetus I shall discuss is the only one of which I have any experience, the human foetus. The foetus grows at an amazing rate. By the time of birth, a baby is six billion times heavier than the egg from which it came, whereas from birth to maturity weight increases only twenty times (Arey, 1965). If the baby continued to grow after birth, even at the reduced rate at...
متن کاملThe skeleton and musculature on foetal MRI
BACKGROUND: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is used as an adjunct to ultrasound in prenatal imaging, the latter being the standard technique in obstetrical medicine. METHODS: Initial results demonstrate the ability to visualise the foetal skeleton and muscles on MRI, and highlight the potentially useful applications for foetal MRI, which has significantly profited from innovations in sequence...
متن کاملFoetal MRI: advances in the evaluation of the developing foetus
MRI assessment of the foetus has been around for 25 years although in routine practice only for the last few years. The tackling of the main challenge of foetal movement was paramount and with this aside the use of the technique has grown exponentially. Arguments related to safety and availability are often used against its routine implementation. However, for a number of specific indications, ...

process. 1. The Foetal Electrocardiogram: The examination of the FECG by the traditional methods of cardiology have proved very disappointing and unrewarding. If, however, the FECG is merely used as a means of recording the beat-to-beat interval of the foetal heart, statistical evaluation of this information can yield a valuable prognostic index. 2. The Foetal Ballistocardiogram: The purpose of...
متن کاملMathematical assessment of foetal facial skeleton development
The goal of the study was to analyse statistically the survey of measurable parameters distinguishing human facial skeleton as well to construct mathematical model describing foetal facial skeleton selected features. The material consisted of 112 foetuses (44 females – 39.29% and 76 males – 60.71%) in the CRL: 83-245 mm, aged 4-7 months of foetal life. The whole of the examined material origina...
