Clinical Trial Summary

A true estimation of gestational age (GA) plays animportant role in quality of maternity care such asassessment of fetal growth and to schedule the labordate. Any inaccurate estimation may lead to peri-natalmorbidity and mortality due to iatrogenic pre- or post-maturity .

Description:

Several longitudinal studies have been performed in the western countries concerning sonographic measurement of fetal kidney length. Initially these were done for diagnosis of renal malformation in utero & later on they were to find out the correlation between the fetal kidney length and the gestational age
