AIUM How to Perform a Detailed Anatomic Ultrasound Examination in the First Trimester (CME VIDEOS)

This video provides an overview of anatomy that can be visualized during a detailed first-trimester sonogram. Fetal biometry acquired during the 11-14 week evaluation is demonstrated. A focus on screening markers, including those seen in the mid-sagittal plane, are evaluated. Precautions regarding ultrasound safety are also discussed.
