The real-time ultrasound images of the head of the pancreas in 93 children, and those of the body of the pancreas in 143 children, were analyzed to determine the normal size. Ultrasound images were obtained by sagittal scanning at the epigastrium and the long axis and the short axis of the oval cros

β¦ Synopsis
With the fetal stomach utilized as a general marker, targeted-imaging of the fetal abdomen was initiated to locate the pancreas. Overall, the pancreas was seen in 77 of 149 cases (51.7%). Menstrual age and the position of the fetus were significant factors in determining the frequency of pancreatic visualization.

## Abstract With the development of gray scale, the appearance of pancreatic anatomy and its relationship to surrounding structures can be demonstrated more effectively. Gray scale has made it possible to identify such vessels as the portal vein, superior mesenteric vein, superior mesenteric artery
## Abstract We report the sonographic, CT, and MRI findings in a case of focal fatty infiltration of the pancreas. Sonography revealed an echogenic mass in pancreas head. On CT, the mass was hypodense. The mass showed same signal intensity to the surrounding normal pancreas on inβphase T1βweighted
The sonographic characteristics and the frequency of the presence or absence of fetal hair in the occipital region was determined from 16 weeks to 42 weeks of menstrual age. Our results suggest that the ultrasonic appearance of occipital hair is first noted at approximately 24 weeks of menstrual age
Six published fetal weight estimating regression models proposed for clinical use were evaluated in 259 pregnant women who delivered within 72 h of an ultrasound evaluation performed with sector scanner. The patient sample included 89 (33.2%) fetal weights that were below the 10th or above the 90th
