METHODS A single trained operator assessed the fet...
متن کاملThe Distribution of Fetal Nuchal Translucency Thickness in Normal Korean Fetuses
The aim of present study was to establish normative data for the distribution of nuchal translucency (NT) thickness in normal Korean fetuses. The data were collected from pregnant women with singleton pregnancies in whom fetal ultrasound was performed and the fetal NT thickness was measured between 11 and 14 weeks of gestation. Among them, a total of 2,577 fetuses with a known normal outcome we...
