Ultrasonic fetal cephalometry: percentiles curve.
نویسنده
چکیده
Measurements by ultrasound of the biparietal diameter of the fetal head during pregnancy are a reliable guide to fetal growth. As a ready means of comparison with the normal we constructed from 4,170 measurements in 1,394 cases a curve showing the percentiles distribution of biparietal diameters for each week of gestation.

Comparison between urinary oestrogen assay and serial ultrasonic cephalometry in assessment of fetal growth retardation.
Urinary oestrogen assay and serial ultrasonic cephalometry were performed on 284 patients who were considered on clinical grounds to be at risk of having a growth-retarded fetus. It was found that ultrasonic cephalometry was significantly better than oestrogens in diagnosing the small-for-dates baby, but that there was no significant difference between the two methods in predicting perinatal as...
متن کاملFetal Growth Curve in Neonates in Alzahra Hospital in Rasht
ABSTRACT Evaluation of intrauterine growth and determination of at risk neonates was done by weight criteria for each pregnancy age. This criteria in different populations is not similar. Main objective of this study was determination of intrauterine growth pattern in this region. Weights of 2380 term neonates and 788 preterm neonates that had a definite LMP and were born at Alzahra hospital i...
متن کاملComparison of ultrasound cephalometry, radiology, and liquor studies in patients with unknown confinement dates.
The accuracy of predicting fetal maturity by ultrasound cephalometry, radiology, and liquor studies in patients with unknown confinement dates has been compared. The best prediction was given by ultrasound cephalometry. Liquor studies were least helpful.
متن کاملIntrauterine Fetal Growth Retardation: A Comparison of Human Placental Lactogen Urinary Oestriol and Biparietal Diameter Measurements
In a previous communication, Robinson et al. (1973) compared the value of five methods of fetal monitoring in respect of their ability to differentiate between normal and growth-retarded pregnancies in a small series of patients. These tests included sonar biparietal cephalometry, 24 h urinary oestriol assays and determination of serum oxytocinase, total alkaline phosphatase and heat-stable alk...
