Previous message: Kim Coglaiti: "4D ULTRASOUND" In reply to: Joshua Copel: "Re: ULTRASOUND digest 1757" not sure about age but i would guess that weight's will always be problematic. first measuring someone's waist line may be predictive but pales in comparison to standing on a scale. additionally, until there's a way to compensate for individual variation in tissue density - eg fat vs muscle content - there will always be errors. more dimensions might actually increase the error. just my opinion - i could be wrong. art At Sun, 27 Oct 2002, Terry J.

I see the 3D volume of space capture and then being able to slice&dice 2D plains from the volume as more useful diagnostically than the 3D/4D surface reconstructions. At least then perhaps we can measure the fetus in true 3D volumes for better age & weight estimates; rather than treating it as if it is in "Flat Land". Anyone else have an opinion on this? > >Peace, Terry J DuBose, RDMS > >lawson2k@juno.com writes: >> Hi folks.... hope there was a sonographers connection booth in Atlanta....

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.
