Abstract
Sonography or palpation alone are inadequate procedures in evaluating cervical function. Only by combining both methods cervical incompetence can be detected at an early stage, adequate therapy instituted and unnecessary cerclage operations prevented. The value of sonography lies in the possibility of studying the functional changes of the cervix in premature labour.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
