Abstract
With advent of ultrasound, fetal changes are efficiently depicted by ultrasonography with the evolving parameters as indicators of intrauterine growth. Another predictor for gestational age can be Transcerebellar diameter (TCD) along with other parameters A study was done on the pregnant women between 15 to 40 weeks who presented to our department for ultrasound examination over a period of one year. All pregnant women were evaluated with complete history, clinical examination and ultrasonography. The results of our study provide normative data of fetal cerbellar growth throughout gestation and demonstrate that the TCD remained unaffected by fetal growth retardation, whereas most biometric parameters measured sonographically were significantly affected by the overall growth retardation process. Estimation of gestational age by transcerebellar diameter correlated with the estimation of the gestational age by other multiple growth parameters.
