We aim to bring together groups and individuals throughout the world for precise standardization to implement the ultrasound evaluation of the fetus in the first trimester of pregnancy and improve the early detection of anomalies and the clinical management of the pregnancy. The aim is to present ...
During the first 13 weeks, your baby changes from a fertilized egg into a fully-formedfetus. All the major organs and systems are taking shape. That means your baby could be harmed if you use street drugs, have an illness, or get exposed to radiation. Here’s what’s happening: ...

along the length of the beam. This disperses energy along the way and reduces the risk for heat cavitation in the fetus. The use of pulse Doppler does not outweigh the risk. The purpose is proof- proof of cardiac activity. We can do that safely with M-mode and obtain a heart rate. ...
