title: Organization of obstetrical ultrasound services in the Nordic countries.
abstract: This is a report of a questionnaire survey to all university departments of obstetrics in the five Nordic countries, concerning organization of ultrasound services. Answers were received from 23 out of 25. The services were differently organized, both between and within countries. This was true both of degree of centralization and of numbers and categories of personnel. The majority of departments in four countries had implemented routine screening programs, while in the fifth there was no organized ultrasound screening.
