Estimation of Fetal Weight by MR Imaging to PREdict Neonatal MACROsomia (PREMACRO Study)

"Prenatal Ultrasound examinations will be carried out using transabdominal sonography only by experienced consultants in MFM. Ultrasound-Estimated Fetal Weight will be obtained between 36.0-36.6 weeks of gestation, according to Hadlock et al.~Operators performing the Ultrasound-Estimated Fetal Weight will be blinded to the results of Magnetic Resonance-Estimated Fetal Weight. The participants, general practitioners, obstetricians and midwifes of the patients will be aware of the results of Ultrasound-Estimated Fetal Weight which will be used for clinical management.~For the primary outcome measure, macrosomia during Ultrasound-Estimated Fetal Weight will be defined as ≥ P95 based on Yudkin et al. For secondary outcome measures, it will be redefined as ≥ P90 or ≥ P99 based on Yudkin."

"MRI will be performed the same day as the Ultrasound examination, using a clinical 1.5T whole-body unit.~Operators performing Fetal Body Volume measurements will be blinded from Ultrasound-Estimated Fetal Weight results. Magnetic Resonance-Estimated Fetal Weight will be calculated using the equation 0,12+1,031\*Fetal Body Volume = MR imaging weight (g) developed by Baker.~General practitioners, obstetricians and midwifes of the patients will be blinded to the results of the Magnetic Resonance-Estimated Fetal Weight.~For the primary outcome measure, macrosomia will be defined as ≥ P95 based on Yudkin et al. For secondary outcome measures, it will be defined as ≥ P90 or ≥ P99."
