Normative range of <scp>MRI</scp> ‐based fetal body volume and association with ultrasonographically estimated fetal weight at 16–36 weeks: prospective study
We provide a normative range for MRI-FBV from 16 to 36 GW, which can be used for clinical and research purposes. The strong association observed between MRI-FBV and US-EFW throughout pregnancy supports the potential for MRI-FBV to be used as a reliable alternative for EFW, particularly in clinical scenarios in which traditional US methods may be limited. Furthermore, the comparison of the four published MRI- or CT-based formulae with US-EFW indicated that our model had the strongest association with US-EFW. © 2025 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology.
