Abstrakt: Ultrasonography (USG) is widely used especially in determination of fetal gestational age detection of congenital anomalies, and evaluation of fetal growth and development. Fetus is visible and measurable by USG, assessing the fetus functionally could be possible by morphometric evaluation of fetal morphology and development. Any maternal and fetal harmful effect of sonography has not been detected, because of this property it is recommended that USG should be used during certain periods of pregnancy used as a screening and diagnostic method. USG is used for estimation of gestational age and assessing fetal growth and development by using various parameters such as crown-rump lenght (CRL), head circumference (HC), femur length (FL), foot length (fl), biparietal diameter (BDP), abdominal circumference (AC) and nasal bone lenght (NL). For example, CRL is a parameter that is used during the first trimester. HC, FL and fl are parameters used in the second and third trimesters. In addition, it was revealed that USG data of living fetuses and data from aborted fetuses were also found to be similar. It is important to know the normal and pathological values of fetal parameters by using both the direct measurement of anatomical dissection and USG studies. Because data obtained from certain periods of pregnancy is important to evaluate the developmental anatomical features of the fetus and detect any congenital and developmental disorder risk. In this paper, it was aimed to evaluate the importance of USG parameters which are routinely assessed and some anatomical parameters recommended in recent papers in term of anatomical and ultrasonografic studies and also monitoring the fetal development.
