Use of intracranial translucency measurement in first trimester, beyond spina bifida

Background: The intracranial translucency (IT) is described as echolucid space located in the fetal central nervous system corresponding to the fourth ventricle. Alteration in the first trimester is associated with neural tube defects (NTDs). Objective: Describe the technique and normal values of tr...

Objective: Describe the technique and normal values of translucency and everything that makes this resourse a useful option in the detection of defects and abnormalities.

Conclusion: The IT should be included in the checklist of valuable structures on 11 to 13 ultrasound; its alteration should be related not just o NTDs but posterior fossa anomalies. 2014 2020-05-26T00:09:21Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 3009041 https://repository.urosario.edu.co/handle/10336/24155 eng info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess application/pdf instname:Universidad del Rosario
