Welcome to ONEMinute learning show, the aim of the show is to learn something new while having a cup of coffee.
Let’s learn something new directly from our Mentor in just one minute. I’m your host Khushboo and today’s topic is NT Scan & The Fetal Jump or a nuchal translucency is a sonographic appearance of a subcutaneous accumulation of fluid behind the fetal neck, but do you know along with following the scanning protocol of NT examination in ultrasound fetal?
Jump plays an extremely important role for examine the correct NT.
This is an app picture for measuring the NT in the midsagittal plane. One may wrongly measure this is Ins as the NT which is actually the space behind the amnion and in between the amnion and Korean, so in order to avoid the wrong measurement of this as an NT, what we have to do is watch the cine after you get the right view wait for some time and the fetus will take a jump when it actually, actually takes a jump. You can actually see that the skin moves away from the amnion and the real nuchal translucency can be measured normally the fetal-jump an important observation to be done while measuring nuchal translucency in order not to wrongly measure NT as an anechoic space behind the skin of the fetus and posterior amnion, which is actually amniotic fluid.
