Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Pregnant women at 32-36 weeks gestational age with sure gestational dating (based in both last menstrual period and dating ultrasound) and otherwise normal singleton pregnancy will be recruited. Ultrasonographic estimation of gestational age using combined transcerebellar diameter and placental thickness will be compared to the actual estimated gestational age.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Diagnostic Test: Transcerebellar diamater
  • Diagnostic Test: Placental thickness

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Pregnant women at 32-36 weeks gestational age

Pregnant women at 32-36 weeks gestational age with sure dates and crown-rump length dating ultrasound

Diagnostic Test: Transcerebellar diamater
Using SAMSUNG H60 convex probe 2-8 MHz Machine by the same sonographer, trans-cerebellar diameter is identified by obtaining an oblique view through posterior fossa that included visualization of midline thalamus, cerebellar hemispheres and cisterna magna.

Diagnostic Test: Placental thickness
Using SAMSUNG H60 convex probe 2-8 MHz Machine by the same sonographer, placental thickness will be measured at the level of the umbilical cord insertion excluding the myometrium and sub-placental veins

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Concordance between estimated gestational age and combined transcerebellar diameter and placental thickness estimation [32-36 weeks gestational age]

    Concordance between the estimated gestational age using last menstrual period and dating ultrasound; and that estimated using combination of transcerebellar diameter and placental thickness
