Obstetric Ultrasound Guidelines and Recommendations: What’s New for 2015? NICHD Guidelines

The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development held a multidisciplinary conference in 2012 to discuss indications for obstetrical ultrasound and for MRI during pregnancy to make recommendations that would optimize the yield of prenatal imaging while minimizing cost. The conference summary was published in 2014 and will be presented during this lecture. The summary discusses first trimester dating and screening from 11-13.9 weeks. During the second trimester, the use of ultrasound for dating is discussed, as well as screening for congenital anomalies, and monitoring cervical length.
