The terminology quoted in the leaflet "Ultrasonometry of foetus in evaluation of gestational age" could change the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in obstetrics from the point of view of only one out of many methods of imaging. The object of the study was to complement the "standards for eleven measurements pertinent to evaluation of pregnancy age and well-being of the foetus", in order to use them in compliance with the laws of auxology with recognize the priority of developmental age over the postmenstrual calendar age. Foetus is not a statistical patient, but an individual one, and it is not clinically important that, e.g. 15% of children are born at the foetal age of 38 or 41 weeks, but whether the examined foetus is born in either of the two weeks. Our complementation should be convincing about the great significance of ultrasonometry not of the foetus (as in the title of the publication in question), but of the foetuses in evaluation of their average gestational age, and about the necessity of reformulation of the published ultrasonomatric standarda, so as to render them clinically useful in regard of the foetuses of various gestational maturation rate.
