Twenty patients between 14 and 28 gestational weeks were scanned on three occasions during a single day by six operators with different ultrasonic experience (three use a compound scanner and three a real-time equipment). On each occasion every operator had to measure in a "blind" manner the fetal biparietal diameter (BPD), head circumference and abdominal circumference (HC and AC); a coded copy of head and abdominal circumference was subsequently measured by one of the members of the staff. Statistical analysis was carried out on the 1800 measurements, and it was concluded that the accuracy was not dissimilar from that reported by pilot studies. The reproducibility of the parameters studied did not change throughout pregnancy and real-time and compound scanner yielded homogeneous results.
