Our objective was to construct a nomogram of the fetal lingual size early pregnancy and to assess the size of the tongue in abnormal fetuses. The lingual width was measured by using transvaginal ultrasonography in 80 normal fetuses at 13 and 18 weeks' gestation. In addition the tongue was measured i

β¦ Synopsis
Fetal renal size late in the first trimester of pregnancy was evaluated by transvaginal ultrasonography in 50 patients not at risk for congenital kidney disease and whose pregnancies resulted in a normal outcome. Both kidneys were reliably identified in all patients scanned at 12 weeks, 13 weeks, and 14 weeks, menstrual age. Kidney diameter measurements obtained in this study are presented for reference in evaluating patients in late first trimester whose fetuses are at risk for kidney abnormalities. Indexing Words: Transvaginal ultrasonography * Kidney -Fetal kidney Kidney malformations are among the most common anomalies observed during fetal life. The fetal kidneys can be visualized with a high degree of accuracy by abdominal ultrasonography , but

## Abstract Three hundred ninety fetal crownβrump measurements by ultrasound echography were performed in order to correlate the crownβrump length with gestational age between the sixth and fourteenth weeks of gestation. A blind trial in 58 patients showed a good correlation of ultrasonically deter
Purpose. We evaluated a recent report that suggested that a ''3-layer'' appearance of the endometrium on sonography is diagnostic of ectopic pregnancy in symptomatic pregnant patients. Methods. We reviewed the log of pelvic sonograms performed to rule out ectopic pregnancy in women presenting with
## Abstract Although pregnancy in a rudimentary uterine horn is rare, the correct diagnosis of this condition on routine sonographic examination is critical, because its natural history usually involves the rupture of the pregnant horn during the second or third trimester, resulting in lifeβthreate
Prenatal screening for fetal abnormalities in an accepted part of modern obstetric management. Improvements on current screening procedures need to address increased diagnostic efficacy and earlier diagnosis. This study evaluates diagnostic efficacy of PAPP-A and F beta-hCG in the detection of first
