Fetal gender prediction based on placental location throughout first trimester transabdominal ultrasound
Background: Awareness of fetal gender at primary stages of pregnancy is very important. Fetal sex determination can reveal pressing information regarding fetal health. One of the methods of determining gender in the first trimester is according to the location of placenta. . This study investigated the accuracy and sensitivity of this method with trans-abdominal ultrasound in determining the se...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Polyhedra Can Be Described by Three Polynomial Inequalities
Bosse et al. conjectured that for every natural number d ≥ 2 and every ddimensional polytope P in Rd there exist d polynomials p0(x), . . . , pd−1(x) satisfying P = { x ∈ Rd : p0(x) ≥ 0, . . . , pd−1(x) ≥ 0} . We show that for dimensions d ≤ 3 even every d-dimensional polyhedron can be described by d polynomial inequalities. The proof of our result is constructive. 2000 Mathematics Subject Clas...
متن کاملExamination of the fetal brain by transabdominal three-dimensional ultrasound: potential for routine neurosonographic studies.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the role of transabdominal three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound in the assessment of the fetal brain and its potential for routine neurosonographic studies. METHODS We studied prospectively 202 consecutive fetuses between 16 and 24 weeks' gestation. A 3D ultrasound volume of the fetal head was acquired transabdominally. The entire brain anatomy was later analyzed using the ...
متن کاملAssessment of fetal malformations in the first trimester of pregnancy by three-dimensional ultrasonography in the rendering mode. Pictorial essay.
We present our experience in the contribution of three-dimensional ultrasonography, using the rendering mode, to the prenatal diagnosis of congenital anomalies including neurological defects (acrania/anencephaly, encephalocele, holoprosencephaly), facial anomalies (cyclopia and facial clefts), abdominal wall defects (omphalocele and gastroschisis) and defects of extremities (fetal muscle-skelet...
متن کاملFirst-trimester determination of fetal gender by ultrasound.
OBJECTIVE To assess the accuracy of fetal sex determination at 11-14 weeks of gestation. METHODS Fetal gender assessment by ultrasound was prospectively carried out in 172 singleton pregnancies at 11-14 weeks of gestation immediately before chorionic villus sampling for karyotyping. The genital region was examined in a midsagittal plane and the fetal gender was assigned as male if the angle o...
