Especially if there is discordant size or mono-amniotic or mono-choronic condition found on the first exam? As far as how to follow twins, read "Tale of Two Babies" and case study of discordant twins in: FETAL SONOGRAPHY, DuBose TJ, W.B. Saunders, Philadelphia, 1995; p 148-154; for my view of this complex issue. Peace, Terry _____ | | Texas UltraSound / BASIC BABY II | | Terry J.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
