ULTRASONIC PELVIMETRY

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1972
In recent years a high accuracy in measuring the biparietal diameter by ultrasonography has been achieved. As this is only one parameter in forecasting cephalo‐pelvic disproportion a study was made to determine whether the true conjugate can be measured by utrasound with approximately the same reliability as the biparietal diameter.

A Comparative Study of X‐Ray Pelvimetry and CT Pelvimetry

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1991
EDITORIAL COMMENT: This paper compares conventional X‐ray pelvimetry with CT pelvimetry and the authors conclude that the latter is preferable due to the lower radiation dose, patient comfort and shorter time of examination; surprisingly they commented that the 2 procedures had no significant difference in cost.Ultrasonography has virtually replaced ...

A Simplified Method of Pelvimetry Using the “Pelvimetry Protractor”

The British Journal of Radiology, 1951
A method of pelvimetry is described which is recommended for standardisation. Two radiographic views are required, three if the pelvic outlet is to be measured. Only two measurements are recorded by the radiographer. No calculations are necessary. Procedure.—Metal calipers are applied to the pelvis in the manner suggested by Hederman (1940): (a) At the

Limitations of lateral pelvimetry

Clinical Radiology, 1967
Owing to the radiation hazard, curtailment of radiography in obstetrics must be accepted. Clinical assessment of the pelvis does not always compensate for this restriction. Some limitations of lateral pelvimetry are described. A normal or near-normal lateral radiograph may mask a gross pelvic deformity with severe asymmetry.

X-ray pelvimetry

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1959
Abstract 1. 1. Two hundred and forty-two cases of x-ray pelvimetry reported by eighteen different radiologists are reviewed on the basis of the prognostic accuracy of the reporting physician. 2. 2. Three out of four were reported correctly, but almost all of these were in the adequate pelvis with an average-sized baby. 3. 3.

Dose Reduction in Pelvimetry

The British Journal of Radiology, 1958
Easily positioned lead shields for lateral and anteroposterior pelvimetric views are described. It is shown that their use results in a considerable reduction in radiation to the maternal ovaries and to all parts of the foetus while still giving the information required: in fact, the dose to the centre of the foetus is reduced to about one-sixth of ...

Pelvimetry by digital radiography

Clinical Radiology, 1985
We studied the ability of digital radiographs generated on a computed tomography scanner to replace conventional pelvimetry. Two digital radiographs were usually sufficient to measure the maternal pelvis. The antero-posterior (AP) digital radiograph allowed measurement of the transverse diameter of the pelvic inlet, the interspinous distance and the ...

Pelvimetry — a Squatter's View

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1991
EDITORIAL COMMENT: These days there is much talk at antenatal classes and in delivery rooms of the options available to women regarding the position at delivery. Many who give advice antenatally lack delivery room experience, and many who give delivery room advice do not receive the blame for delivery difficulties.

Radiologic Low-Dose Pelvimetry

Acta Radiologica. Diagnosis, 1980
In large patient populations from Karolinska Sjukhuset, radiologic pelvimetry data including mean values and correlation of the pelvic diameters have been defined. Overall incidence of contraction and borderline pelvic measurements and the efficacy of selecting by palpation the patients with a narrow pelvis have been evaluated.
