Nuchal 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 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 کاملAutomatic Nuchal Translucency Measurement from Ultrasonography
This paper proposes a fully automatic approach for computing Nuchal Translucency (NT) measurement in an ultrasound scans of the mid-sagittal plane of a fetal head. This is an improvement upon current NT measurement methods which require manual placement of NT measurement points or user-guidance in semi-automatic segmentation of the NT region. The algorithm starts by finding the pose of the feta...
متن کاملHydatidiform moles associated with multiple gestations after assisted reproduction: diagnosis by analysis of DNA fingerprint.
In spite of the widespread use of assisted reproductive technology, there have been, to our knowledge, only two reported cases of molar pregnancies after gamete intra-Fallopian transfer and five reported cases after in-vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. We report here a case of a complete hydatidiform mole in a twin pregnancy after gamete intra-Fallopian transfer, as well as a case of a c...
متن کاملNuchal translucency measurement in fetuses with spinal muscular atrophy.
OBJECTIVE Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder with a high carrier frequency in the general population. The severity of this disorder indicates the importance of early prenatal detection. In medical literature, there are a few published case reports of enlarged nuchal translucency (NT) measurement in association with a diagnosis of SMA in the fetus....
