Abstract

We present here a program of ventricular volumes measurements in which an area-lenght procedure and a digital computer were used. The results were compared with those obtained by the manual method using the same formula. The correlative estatistical analysis of these results showed a high index of 0.95 when compared to the telediastolic volumes obtained by both technics, while the index reached 0.99 in reference to the telesistolic volumes and the ejection fraction.

Transvaginal fetal biometry in early pregnancy.

OBJECTIVE: To produce reference charts for fetal size with transvaginal sonography that are potentially helpful in evaluating normal and abnormal early pregnancies. DESIGN: A prospective cross-sectional study. SUBJECTS: 1081 normal singleton pregnancies with a normal fetal karyotype or normal healthy baby at delivery, at 9-16 weeks' gestation. Measurements included crown rump length, biparietal diameter, transverse cerebellar diameter, head and abdominal circumference, mean abdominal diameter, thoracic circumference, femur length, humerus length and foot length. RESULTS: The best description of the relationship between single ultrasonographic parameters and gestational age was achieved by polynomial regression analysis. All fetal biometric parameters correlated closely with gestational age. Biparietal diameter maintained the closest correlation with gestational age (r2 = 97.15, p < 0.001; y = -0.545 - 0.06x + 0.15x2); transverse cerebellar diameter showed the poorest correlation with gestational age (r2 = 88.17, p < 0.001). Reference ranges (5 degrees and 95 degrees percentile intervals) were constructed for all biometric parameters in relation to gestational age. Mean residuals are similar for all parameters with a very low range. CONCLUSIONS: These data provide normograms for first and early second trimester fetal measurements which may be of aid in the dating of pregnancies and can be useful in the early detection of genetic disorders affecting the growth of fetal structures.

Objective techniques for craniofacial assessment: what are the choices?

The approach to an individual with unusual facial appearance has traditionally involved a subjective assessment coupled with a few craniofacial measurements. Our ability to describe facial morphology has improved in recent years through the development of new techniques such as computerized tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound studies, and stereoscopic imaging. However, the relatively simpler techniques of anthropometry, cephalometry, and photogrammetry, developed prior to the advent of microchips and imaging software, continue to provide unique advantages not afforded by these technically more sophisticated methods. These objective methods should enhance pattern recognition, particularly in rare syndromes, and allow for earlier diagnosis.
