This study presents the modified Cordes method, a novel ultrasonographic technique that provides a precise and practical evaluation of fetal situs during pregnancy, particularly in the first and early second trimesters. This method entails precisely aligning the probe and hand to obtain a clear image of the fetal thorax in the axial plane. The fundamental procedures involve ascertaining the initial location of the fetal head, rotating the probe, aligning the thorax at the center, and positioning the left hand to clearly identify the fetal situs. Tests conducted in many pregnancies have verified that the modified Cordes approach offers prompt and precise identification of fetal situs and is more accessible to acquire, particularly for new practitioners. The modified Cordes approach is a straightforward and reliable technique for establishing the position of the fetus. Its application during the first and early second trimesters improves diagnostic accuracy by minimizing the chances of misinterpretation. This method offers benefits by making the process of determining fetal situs more objective and straightforward for practitioners with varying degrees of experience.
