Minicomputer-based system for obstetric ultrasound analysis, with multi-user and networking capability. 1985

N V Simon, and P A Hansberry, and D M Shearer, and E B Sellers

A computer-assisted approach to the dating of gestation and the evaluation of fetal growth by ultrasonography that relies on a computer-based information management system of a general hospital is described. The system processes, stores, retrieves, and compares ultrasound data, and a report can be generated by the ultrasonographer while the patient is still on the examining table. A major feature is that the system can be accessed by any authorized user from any terminal within the hospital where obstetric ultrasound examinations are performed and from off-site physicians' offices. The large memory capacity, the networking among several data bases, and the statistical manipulation capabilities of the system make it ideal for clinical research.

D005865 Gestational Age The age of the conceptus, beginning from the time of FERTILIZATION. In clinical obstetrics, the gestational age is often estimated from the onset of the last MENSTRUATION which is about 2 weeks before OVULATION and fertilization. It is also estimated to begin from fertilization, estrus, coitus, or artificial insemination.
