Prenatal growth curves of the Czech population

Abstract

We have obtained new prenatal ultrasound growth curves for the Czech population of healthy developing fetuses. In early gestation weeks, we have found statistically significant deviations from the reference studies.

Fetuses in our study have significantly higher weight estimate and show a lower degree of variability compared to the reference studies.
