Outcomes of pregnancies with varying levels of nuchal translucency measurements: A population‐based retrospective study in Ontario, Canada [PDF]
Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica ScandinavicaIntroduction Nuchal translucency prenatal ultrasound is widely used to screen for chromosomal abnormalities. An elevated nuchal translucency has been associated with adverse outcomes such as pregnancy loss; however, extant studies investigating these ...

Image Settings Affecting Nuchal Translucency Measurement Using Volume NT Software. [PDF]
Yonsei Med J, 2015 To evaluate the effects of the deviation from the mid-sagittal plane, fetal image size, tissue harmonic imaging (THI), and speckle reduction filter (SRF) on the measurement of the nuchal translucency (NT) thickness using Volume NT software.In 79 pregnant women, NT was measured using Volume NT.

Quality management of nuchal translucency ultrasound measurement in Australia [PDF]
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 2018 BackgroundNuchal translucency measurement has an established role in first trimester screening. Accurate measurement requires that technical guidelines are followed. Performance can be monitored by auditing the distribution of measurements obtained in a series of cases.AimsThe primary aim is to develop an accessible, theory‐based educational program ...

Automatic detection and measurement of nuchal translucency
Computers in Biology and Medicine, 2017 In this paper we propose a new methodology to support the physician both to identify automatically the nuchal region and to obtain a correct thickness measurement of the nuchal translucency. The thickness of the nuchal translucency is one of the main markers for screening of chromosomal defects such as trisomy 13, 18 and 21.

Reappraising the Value of Fetal First-Trimester Ultrasonography
Maternal-Fetal Medicine, 2023 . In the last few years, the introduction of cell-free DNA has rapidly altered prenatal screening regimens and is increasingly offered as the second- or, at times, even the first-tier screening test.

Automatic Nuchal Translucency Measurement from Ultrasonography [PDF]
, 2013 This paper proposes a fully automatic approach for computing Nuchal Translucency (NT) measurement in an ultrasound scans of the mid-sagittal plane of a fetal head. This is an improvement upon current NT measurement methods which require manual placement of NT measurement points or user-guidance in semi-automatic segmentation of the NT region.
