Coronal transcerebellar diameter: an alternate view.

Publication/Presentation Date

Abstract

Evaluation of the fetal cerebellum in the axial plane has become an important part of obstetric sonography. We report our experience with an alternate view, the coronal transcerebellar view, in 134 fetuses at gestational ages of 13-30 weeks. There is a linear first-order correlation between axial and coronal transcerebellar diameters. Additionally, the coronal view was more reliably obtained, especially at gestational ages between 24 and 30 weeks. We believe that this view warrants further study, particularly in pathological states.
