Dimension of Foetal Kidneys & Gestational Age Estimation
Dr. Shailesh Kumar, Dr. Ketki K, Dr. Deepak Mishra
Abstract :
Reliable gestational age assessment of the fetus is usually done by ultrasonography. The various parameters which have been used for gestational age measurements are: Crown rump length (CRL), Biparietal diameter (BPD), Head circumference, Abdominal circumference, Femur length, Hand and Foot length, Time of appearance of ossification centers of bones. Gestational age estimation is usually the primary characteristic for identification and is often the only means of identification for fetuses since they do not usually have any other type of identification with them. Gestational age estimation can also play an important role in the prosecution of forensic cases. There are lots of studies reported in literature showing the relation of length of kidneys and gestational age estimation.
