What are the novel findings of this work? Sonographic tools developed to assess ventriculomegaly in the neonate were applied to a fetal population, deriving, for each neonatal index, cut-offs corresponding to grading of ventriculomegaly by fetal atrial width.
What are the clinical implications of this work?Until now, ventriculomegaly has been assessed using different sonographic indices in the fetus and neonate. This study provides common ground, allowing monitoring of the severity of ventriculomegaly in a continuum, from the first intrauterine evidence into the neonatal period.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
