Sammanfattning
Ultrasound examination during pregnancy is now an essential part of modern obstetrical management. In many European countries women are offered 1-3 ultrasound examinations during their pregnancy. In Denmark a similar offer is available but only to a very limited extent. Ultrasound examinations are performed on medical reasons. Modern equipment, trained sonographers, and the increasing use of ultrasound scannings imply that a considerable number of fetal malformations are diagnosed. A very comprehensive literature is available describing the sensitivity of diagnosing a fetal malformation at different times during the pregnancy. In a number of studies the sensitivity within different organ systems has been given as well. Intrauterine treatment is afield with great development, in which the more invasive operative techniques are replaced by laparoscopic procedures.
