To provide a more detailed assessment of the growth of twins, the individual second trimester growth patterns of six fetal parameters [HC, AC, FDL, ThC, head cube (A) and abdominal cube (B)] were studied in fourteen sets of normal twins (six monozygotic and eight dizygotic) and sixteen normal single

Second-and third-trimester growth in 34 twin fetuses was evaluated with ultrasonography by measurement of five anatomic parameters. Rossavik growth models, derived from second-trimester measurements, were used to specify expected thirdtrimester growth curves. Actual measurements were compared to pre
Using a weight estimation procedure based of the Rossavik growth model, we have evaluated the possibility of establishing individual growth cuwe standards for fetal weight estimates and of predicting birth weights in the second trimester. In 20 normal fetuses delivered at term, 95% of the weight est
Cross sectional curves and individual fetal growth curves standards from the Rossavik growth model [P = c(t)(k + s(t]] were generated for abdominal and head circumferences, femur diaphysis length and estimated fetal weight from a sample of 59 women with twin pregnancy. These curves were compared to
