The ratio of lateral ventricle to hemispheric width was measured in 200 normal pregnancies. Statistical curve fitting was tried to predict normal value and 5 and 95 percentiles. Anatomical sections of fetal head are provided to correlate the ultrasonic pictures. A typical case of application is described.

We have measured the levels of alpha-feto protein in 127 samples of amniotic fluid, obtained in the course of antenata diagnosis, using the immunoelectrophoretic method of Laurell. The mean, the upper limit of normal and the extreme levels of alpha-feto protein in liquor have been calculated for each gestational age. The difficulties which have been met with in interpreting the results (false positives and false negatives) have been discussed.
Amniofetography is a valuable tool for the diagnosis of fetal malformations. We have studied the effect of radiopaques dyes, containing large amounts of iodide, on fetal thyroid function. We have performed serial determinations of serum thyrotropin and thyroxine in seven newborn infants submitted to amniofetography. This work demonstrates that amniofetography induces a transient impairment of fetal thyroid function.

Amniofetography is a valuable tool for the diagnosis of fetal malformations. This technique is being used routinely in pregnancies carrying a high risk of external fetal malformations. There are very few published data concerning the effect of radiopaque dyes, containing large amounts of iodide, on fetal thyroid function. We have performed serial determinations of serum thyrotropin and thyroxine in seven newborn infants to assess the effect of amniofetogrpahy on fetal thyroid function. This work demonstrates that amniofetography induces a transient impairment of fetal thyroid function.
