Abstract
The normal range for measurements [human] fetal limb bones early in pregnancy was established. Results show a linear correlation between fetal biparietal diameter and limb bone length and a significant difference between the mean measurements of the individual limb bones. The clinical significance of these findings is discussed.Keywords
