Prediction of birthweight by fetal ultrasound biometry
The method of measurement of abdominal circumference (AC) is not stated in the paper by Nzeh et al [1]. It is known [2] that measurements based on derived values of AC, such as ellipse fitting or computation from two linear measurements, differ from measurements based on tracing around the outline, the latter being approximately 5% greater.

Abstract Objective This study determines whether a machine‐learning model integrating sonographic biometry with maternal clinical parameters improves prediction of large‐for‐gestational‐age (LGA) compared with Hadlock's EFW formula. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study including all singleton live births at ≥32 gestational weeks at a ...

Emerging applications of artificial intelligence for obstetric ultrasound: A scoping review
Abstract Background The WHO recommends that all pregnant women receive an ultrasound (US) scan prior to 24 weeks gestation to encourage early identification of various conditions, such as fetal anomalies, multiple gestation, and placental abnormalities; however, global access to US remains limited.
