متن کاملMeasurement of fetal nuchal translucency thickness by three-dimensional ultrasound.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the feasibility and repeatability of nuchal translucency thickness measurement using three-dimensional ultrasound. METHODS Forty consecutive women with uncomplicated singleton pregnancies attending for Down syndrome screening at 11-14 weeks' gestation were included in this prospective crossover trial. Nuchal translucency thickness was measured using both two-dimension...
متن کاملNuchal translucency: an ultrasound marker for fetal chromosomal abnormalities.
CONTEXT The literature shows an association between several ultrasound markers and chromosome abnormality. Among these, measurement of nuchal translucency has been indicated as a screening method for aneuploidy. The trisomy of chromosome 21 has been most evaluated. OBJECTIVE To define the best fixed cutoff point for nuchal translucency, with the assistance of the ROC curve, and its accuracy i...
متن کاملNuchal translucency measurement in first trimester Down syndrome screening.
(1) Approximately three in every four fetuses with Down syndrome have increased nuchal translucency (NT), which is a larger than normal build-up of fluid at the back of the neck. (2) The ultrasound measurement of NT between 11 and 14 weeks' gestation, in combination with the mother's age and the levels of placental biochemical markers in her blood, can be used to detect approximately 84% of fet...
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...
