These situations occur, in my experience, when operators lack a methodical approach to scanning a pregnancy. A good rule of thumb is "if you can one fetus, look for a second and if you can see two, look for a third, etc." Sue Davies Australian Institute of Ultrasound

Why does there are situations where triplets are missed and reported as twins?In one case a twin was reported as singleton in 2nd trimester.I suppose it's a plane problem.

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.
