The clinical estimate of the foetal weight is probably one of the most difficult parameters to obtain in the prenatal control. Only very accurate foetal body measurements reflect the gestation age and the weight of the foetus. A model is presented that performs an automated foetal age and weight determination from ultrasound by means of biparietal diameter, femur lenght and abdominal circumfere...

BACKGROUND A comparison of fetal ultrasonographic biometric parameters of the head (head circumference - HC, biparietal diameter - BPD) in breech presented fetuses. METHODS Ultrasound biometry was performed in accordance with the method presented in the reference tables. In all breech presented fetuses, the HC, BPD and FL (femur length) were measured. High-risk and multiple pregnancies were e...

Ultrasound examinations offer the possibility to monitor fetal growth and estimate weight, but reference data for such techniques in pigs are rare. The aim of this study was therefore identify suitable anatomical structures monitoring physiological dynamics by ultrasound weight using appropriate mathematical models. For purpose, 198 fetuses 15 primiparous Landrace sows were examined on days 36,...

ABSTRACT: The objective of the present study was to obtain echobiometric values for most important canine maternal-fetal tissues using high-definition ultrasonography (HDUS) trying update formulas predicting gestational age. Twelve healthy bitches brachycephalic breeds weighing 7-13kg and aged one four years were included. fetuses analyzed every day conventional from eighth after artificial ins...

We describe a case of catatonic stupor following simultaneous biparietal infarction. The patient recovered, a result not previously described in catatonia caused by this pattern of cerebral infarct.

Bu çalışmada, Karadeniz’in önemli antik kentlerinden birisi olan Sinop’ta Balatlar Kilise popülasyonu içerisinde 2006 yılında tespit edilen ve 18. yüzyıla ait olduğu düşünülen bir kafatası incelenmiştir. Yapılan makroskobik tomografik incelemelerde, ileri erişkin bu bireyin 3. derece bilateral osteodistrofiye sahip anlaşılmıştır. Simetrik biçimde parietalin her iki yanında yer alan lezyon, özel...

Background: Accurate estimation of gestational age (GA) is crucial for providing quality health care and need intervention in inadvertent conditions such as fetal growth restriction. Various parameters are used measuring GA, but none them valid 3rd trimester. Recently some studies focused on Fetal kidney length (FKL) measurement correct GA. This study the validation accuracy FKL.Objective: Esti...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The application of volumetric techniques to preterm infants has revealed brain volume reductions. Such quantitative data are not available in routine neonatal radiologic care. The objective of this study was to develop simple brain metrics to compare brain size in preterm and term infants and to correlate these metrics with brain volumes from volumetric MR imaging techniq...

Introduction Large birthweight discrepancy has been identified as a risk factor for perinatal morbidity and mortality in twin pregnancies. However, it remains unclear whether such discordance can be predicted by various biological indices with specific cut-off values, how these depend on the gestational age. We aimed to determine most effective way predict large at ages. Material methods A retr...
