Clinical trials: Growth Disorders
Fetal Macrosomia, Intrauterine Growth Disorders (IUGR and Macrosomia)
Estimation of Fetal Weight by Measuring Abdominal Circumference, Abdominal Subcutaneous Soft Tissue Thickness, Femur Length and Mid-thigh Soft Tissue Thickness
Traditional methods for estimating fetal weight (EFW) often miss the mark because they focus on bone and circumference while ignoring fetal fat. This study proposes a more inclusive formula to fix that.
