Original Source: Accuracy of fetal gender determination in the 1st trimester using 3D ultrasound.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the accuracy of 3D ultrasound in fetal gender assignment at first trimester METHODS: A series of pregnant women attending at 11-13 + 6 weeks for the nuchal translucency scan were enrolled in the study. An ultrasound volume of each fetus was performed and stored for offline analysis. On the reconstructed midsagittal plane the angle between the genital tubercle and an imaginary line passing tangentially through the fetal back (Genital angle) was estimated. Fetal gender was subsequently...
