Accuracy of 5D LB Ultrasound in Prediction of Birth Weight in Macrosomic Babies : A Pilot Study

Accuracy of 5D LB Ultrasound in Prediction of Birth Weight in Macrosomic Babies: A Pilot Study

5D and 2D ultrasounds will be done for pregnant women with macrosomic fetuses to determine estimated fetal weight using hadlock formula. The accuracy of fetal weight obtained by ultrasound will be compared to actual birth weight.

Inclusion Criteria:

• 37 to 42 weeks gestation
• macrosomic fetuses
• maternal diabetes

Exclusion Criteria:

• intrauterine fetal death
• multiple pregnancy
• congenital anomaly
• nonvisualized fetal parts
