Dynamic fetal cephalometry.

P Davies, R E Richardson

    British Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology
    |October 1, 1979
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    This study introduces an iterative method for fetal cephalometry using real-time scanners, achieving high measurement accuracy with a standard deviation under 1 mm. This new technique surpasses the older combined A and B scan method in precision.
