Accuracy of ultrasonographic transcerebellar diameter for dating in third trimester of pregnancy in Nigerian women: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesBMC Medical Imaging
Background Accurate prediction of foetal gestational age is of critical importance as it can positively affect the outcome of pregnancy. Routine sonographic estimation of gestational age using biparietal diameter, head circumference, abdominal ...

A Novel Fetal Intracranial Measurement Contributing to the Differential Diagnosis of Fetal Microcephaly

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 7, Page 1409-1418, July 2026.
Objectives To evaluate the value of the thickness of the frontal lobe (TFL) and foramen magnum‐to‐cranium distance (FCD) for predicting poor neurodevelopmental outcomes in fetuses with a small head circumference (HC). Methods This retrospective observational study included 39 fetuses with HC < −2 standard deviations (SD) and 592 prospectively collected

Selection of standards for estimated fetal weight percentiles

open access: yesPregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 4, July 2026.
Abstract Objectives To evaluate which of 10 standards or references should be used for determination of percentiles of estimated fetal weight (EFW). Study design Cross‐sectional study using pooled data from four maternal‐fetal medicine (MFM) practices. Inclusion criteria were as follows: ultrasound exam during 2022, singleton fetus, gestational age 240/

Original Article Section: Radiology Ultrasonographic Fetal Gestational Age Determination by Biparietal Diameter

open access: yes, 2020
Background: Size and body proportions at birth predict short and long term outcomes. The main determinant of perinatal mortality is low birth weight. Several development indicators like Biparietal diameter (BPD), Head Circumference (HC) and Femur Length (

open access: yes, 1973
Fetal biparietal diameter was measured in utero with ultrasonic techniques, in 1,011 patients with 3,032 measurements at gestational ages ranging from 15 to 43 wks.

Transverse Cerebellar Diameter Versus Femur Length and Biparietal Diameter in Estimation of Gestaional Age in the Second And Third Trimesters of Pregnancy [PDF]

open access: yesAl-Azhar International Medical Journal
Background: The posterior cranial fossa contains the cerebellum of most of the rear brain. The fourth ventricle divides it from the pons and medulla, which are located dorsal to each other.

Risk of Placental Pathology Across Ultrasound‐Defined Phenotypes of Impaired Fetal Growth in Dichorionic Twins: A Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesBJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, Volume 133, Issue 8, Page 1616-1628, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine the risk of placental dysfunction associated with different ultrasound‐based phenotypes of impaired fetal growth in dichorionic twin pregnancies. Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting Single tertiary centre. Population Patients with dichorionic twin pregnancies delivered at ≥ 320/7 (2011–2023) (N = 753).

Ultrasound evidence of early fetal growth restriction after maternal malaria infection.

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: Intermittent preventive treatment (IPT), the main strategy to prevent malaria and reduce anaemia and low birthweight, focuses on the second half of pregnancy. However, intrauterine growth restriction may occur earlier in pregnancy. The aim of

Patent Ductus Arteriosus Persistence and Neurodevelopmental Outcomes: A Restrictive Treatment Approach Does Not Compromise Neurological Development

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, Volume 115, Issue 7, Page 1461-1466, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Optimal treatment strategies for patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and their impact on neurodevelopmental outcomes remain controversial. This study investigates the influence of PDA duration on neurodevelopment under a restrictive treatment approach.

Second trimester placental thickness: its’ correlation with gestational age, femur length and biparietal diameter

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Placental thickness (PT) is the easiest placental dimension to measure, yet little is known about the normal PT. The aim of this study was to determine the normal, sonographically measured PT in millimetre (mm) in the second trimester and to ...
