Amniotic Fluid Index in Twin Gestation [PDF]
AbstractThis study was performed to describe a methodology for a two‐pocket amniotic fluid index (AFI) for each fetus of a twin gestation. Data included 216 pairs of measurements that were analyzed to yield regressions (curves) for all observations, as well as for the larger and smaller AFI of each observation on a particular set of twins. The twin AFI
