Ultrasonic evaluation of fetal ventricular growth.
The ratio of lateral ventricle to hemispheric width was measured in 200 normal pregnancies. Statistical curve fitting was tried to predict normal value and 5 and 95 percentiles. Anatomical sections of fetal head are provided to correlate the ultrasonic pictures. A typical case of application is described.
