Abstract:
Background: In the first 3 months of pregnancy, gestational age to calculate one can measure fetal size bag, the butt length of the embryo pregnancy by ultrasound. After 3 months, estimated gestational age based on peak diameter, femur length, diameter of the cerebellum, the average diameter of two eye holes.\r\n', u'Objectives: Measure and analyze the structure of the fovea, the average diameter of the fovea, as measured two other indicators of the fetus on ultrasound. Learn more connections with the diameter of the fetal development, with gestational age, peak diameter.\r\n', u'Subjects and method: Measuring the interorbital distance of the fetus for pregnant women with regular MP from 28-30 days by ultrasound and with gestational age from 14 weeks of gestation on. Using 2D ultrasound, measuring the indicators of the fetus as the distance between the fovea, peak diameter, transparent front wall, two-hump peak.\r\n', u'Results:The results showed that: there\u2019s a relation between the diameter of the orbital distance with its gestational age. It is demonatrated as followed: Y=0.7873x + 4.0273 with R = 0.8412. The distance between the fovea and peak diameter correlated by the equation Y = 2.1719x + 4.4799 v\u1edbi R = 0.7517. It is more easy and accurate to measure the interorbital distance for pregnancy in second trimester. \r\n', u'Conclusion: Basing on this result, whenever the pregnant woman could not remember exactly the first day of her last MP or her MP is long, we can use the graph of this relation to estimate the weight of the fetal and the day of delivery.\r\n', u'
