## Abstract Fifteen hundred patients were scanned to predict fetal age and weight by biparietal diameter measurement. Three hundred eleven patients had more than one scan. Fortythree small for gestational age (SGA) babies were ultimately delivered in this population. Prenatal ultrasound screening c

Abstract
This review discusses the problem of detecting intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) with ultrasound. A new procedure for standardizing the reporting of such studies is presented. Using this standard format, the results obtained by various investigators using a variety of parameters are summarized, compared and evaluated. Suggestions for standardizing such investigations are presented.

The growth of 17 sets of twins was evaluated at 2 to 3 week intervals from 15 weeks to delivery by measurement of the head circumference, abdominal circumference, and thigh circumference, and estimation of weight. The birth characteristics of these twins were compared to those predicted by Rossavik
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
## Abstract A prospective study was conducted to evaluate the ability of the transverse cerebellar diameter/abdominal circumference ratio to identify growthβretarded fetuses. Of the cases analyzed, 48 of 87 (55%) were growth retarded by birth weight. The transverse cerebellar diameter/abdominal cir
