Image Settings Affecting Nuchal Translucency Measurement Using Volume NT™ Software
PURPOSE To evaluate the effects of the deviation from the mid-sagittal plane, fetal image size, tissue harmonic imaging (THI), and speckle reduction filter (SRF) on the measurement of the nuchal translucency (NT) thickness using Volume NT software. MATERIALS AND METHODS In 79 pregnant women, NT was measured using Volume NT. Firstly, the three-dimensional volumes were categorized based on the ...
متن کاملNuchal translucency and gestational age.
Professor Wald and his team (Wald et al., 2004) have remodelled the already modelled SURUSS data (Wald et al., 2003a) to claim, firstly, that their results are now similar to those of the multicentre study co-ordinated by the Fetal Medicine Foundation (Snijders et al., 1998), and, secondly, that the gestation of choice for nuchal translucency (NT) measurement is 10 weeks. The latest modelling e...
متن کاملNuchal translucency in multiple pregnancies.
AIM To evaluate the prevalence of increased nuchal translucency (NT) in multiple pregnancies and its relation to fetal karyotype and pregnancy outcome. METHODS We measured fetal nuchal translucency (NT) in 6,338 women pregnant from 10+3 to 13+6 weeks by ultrasound and evaluated the prevalence of NT=95th centile in 115 multiple pregnancies, including 100 pairs of twins (70 dichorionic and 30 m...
متن کاملAnalysis of Quality of Nuchal Translucency Measurements
Objective: Quantitative analysis of the quality of nuchal translucency (NT) measurements. Methods: This is a retrospective single-center study. NT was measured according to the Fetal Medicine Foundation (FMF) criteria by 20 trained obstetricians (October 2003-November 2009). The performance of NT measurements was analyzed with regard to several quality control standards. Accuracy according to e...
متن کاملImage Classification for Ultrasound Fetal Images with Increased Nuchal Translucency during First Trimester Using SVM Classifier
Increased Nuchal Translucency is an indicator of increased risk for Down syndrome, which is identified by measuring Nuchal Translucency from ultrasound fetal images during 11 to 13 weeks of gestation. Increased NT is associated with chromosomal abnormalities. In this study an efficient classification system based on Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) is proposed to detect the normal and abnormal ...
