title: [The ultrasonic diagnosis of intrauterine fetal growth retardation].
abstract: A total of 256 pregnant women were examined in pregnancy terms of 19-40 weeks. Besides routine fetometric parameters, the transverse diameter of the cerebellum was measured in the fetuses. This parameter was in good correlation with the gestational age. In 42 cases with small-for-date fetuses the transverse diameter of the cerebellum did not much differ from that in the reference group. Therefore measurement of the transverse diameter of the cerebellum is a truly good method for the assessment of the gestational age, for it is virtually independent of all the pathologic processes in the mother or fetus.
