18. BPD together with head circumference (HC), abdominal circumference (AC), and femur length (FL) are computed to produce an estimate of fetal weight. In the second trimester this may be extrapolated to an estimate of gestational age and an estimated due date (EDD). The BPD should be measured on an axial plane that traverses the thalami, and cavum septum pellucidum. The transducer must be perpendicular to the central axis of the head, and thus the hemispheres and calvaria should appear symmetric.

34. BLIGHTED OVUM Anembryonic pregnancy is a form of a failed early pregnancy, where a gestational sac develops, but the embryo does not form. The term blighted ovum is synonymous with this, but is falling out of favour and is best avoided. Radiographic features Ultrasound An anembryonic pregnancy may be diagnosed when there is no fetal pole identified on endovaginal scanning, and: the size of the gestational sac is such that a fetal pole should be seen: MSD ≥25 mm on TVS (by RCOG criteria)

36. MOLAR PREGNANCY Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) results from abnormal proliferation of trophoblastic tissue, and encompasses a wide spectrum of diseases, including: hydatidiform mole complete mole partial mole invasive mole Chorio carcinoma (gestational choriocarcinoma) Radiographic features Ultrasound enlarged uterus classic sonographic appearance is that of a solid collection of echoes with numerous small (3-10 mm) anechoic spaces ( snowstorm appearance ). the molar tissue demonstrates the punch of grapes sign which represents hydropic swelling of trophoblastic villi.

38. Ectopic pregnancy refers to the implantation of a fertilised ovum outside of the uterine cavity. Radiographic features Ultrasound The ultrasound exam should be performed both transabdominally and transvaginally. The transabdominal component provides a wider overview of the abdomen, whereas a transvaginal scan is important for diagnostic sensitivity. Positive sonographic findings include: uterus empty uterine cavity or no evidence of intrauterine pregnancy Pseudo gestational sac or decidual cyst: may be seen in 10-20% of ectopic pregnancies Direct visualization of the sac at the adenxia.

41. ANENECEPHALY >>>> FROG SIGN APPEARANCE Anencephaly is the most severe form of cranial neural tube defect (NTD) and is characterized by absence of cortical tissue (although brainstem and cerebellum may be variably present) as well as absence of the cranial vault. Associations As with many other malformations, a number of associated abnormalities are recognized : other neural tube defects: spina bifida (especially cervical) congenital heart defects cleft lip/palate diaphragmatic hernia(s) spinal dysraphism skeletal anomalies: e.g. clubfeet gastrointestinal abnormalities: e.g. omphalocoele Radiographic features Antenatal ultrasound Anencephaly may be sonographically detectable as early as 11 weeks. Ultrasound can be a non invasive, no parenchymal tissue is seen above the orbits and calvarium is absent: parts of the occipital bone and mid brain may be present urinary tract abnormalities: hydronephrosis most common

43. HYDROPIS FETALIS Hydrops fetalis is excessive extravasation of fluid due to heart failure, volume overload, decreased oncotic pressure, or increased vascular permeability. Hydrops fetalis is defined as accumulation of fluid +/- edema involving at least two fetal components, which may manifest as fetal pleural effusion fetal pericardial effusion fetal ascites generalized body edema: fetal anasarca /nuchal edema/cystic hygroma placental enlargement Poly hydramnious

44. Sonographic features can be similar for both immune and non-immune hydrops and include: increased amniotic fluid volumes larger placental size (placento megaly) The maximum thickness considered normal at any stage in pregnancy is often taken at 4 cm. increased placental thickness (placental edema) presence of a fetal pleural or pericardial effusion generalized fetal body swelling : fetal anasarca and skin thickening > 3 mm

46. POLY HYDRAMINOUS Poly hydraminos refers to a situation where the amniotic fluid volume is more than expected for gestational age. It is generally defined as: amniotic fluid index (AFI) > 25 cm largest fluid pocket depth (maximal vertical pocket (MVP)) greater than 8 cm overall amniotic fluid volume larger than 1500-2000 cc3

54. OVARIAN CYSTS Ovarian cysts are commonly encountered in gynecological imaging, and vary widely in etiology, from physiologic, to complex benign, to neoplastic. Small cystic ovarian structures should be considered normal ovarian follicles unless the patient is pre-pubertal, post-menopausal, pregnant, or the mean diameter is >3.0 cm Radiographic features Ultrasound is usually the first imaging modality for assessment of ovarian lesions. Simple ovarian follicular cysts are: anechoic intraovarian or exophytic; have an imperceptible wall

57. POLYCYSTIC OVARIAN SYNDROME (PCOS) IS A CHRONIC ANOVULATION SYNDROME. SONOGRAPHIC FINDINGS ALONE ARE NOT SPECIFIC, AND THE DIAGNOSIS IS MADE ON THE COMBINED CLINICAL, BIOCHEMICAL AND SONOGRAPHIC GROUNDS The classic triad of PCOS is: oligomenorrhea hirsutism Obesity Ovaries may show sonographic features of polycystic ovaries bilateral enlarged ovaries with multiple small follicles: 50% increased ovarian size (>10 cc) 12 or more follicles measuring 2-9 mm follicles of similar size peripheral location of follicles: which can give a string of pearl appearance hyperechoic central stroma the ovarian outline may be slightly irregular
