A computerized method for accurately predicting fetal macrosomia up to 11 weeks before delivery

The combined approach of predicting fetal macrosomia using ultrasonographic fetal measurements and pregnancy-specific characteristics is superior to pre-existing approaches that rely on either method alone. The method can be used up to 11 weeks before delivery, allowing fetal macrosomia to be predicted reliably in low-risk populations sufficiently early for prospective clinical intervention to be undertaken.
