What Does My Ultrasound Report Indicate?

Yes I am about 28 wks pregnant and I was looking over a previous ultrasound as had some questions. I m not sure what all these abbreviations mean but: AC 215 mm, FL 51mm, BPD 70mm and HC 258 mm. My question is does this seem like normal measurements at this stage of pregnancy?

Radiologist 's  Response
Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM

According to reports fetal maturity is not mentioned in respect to weeks,you can ask your radiologist to do so.It is impossible to interpret from this finding.

AC is abdominal circumference of the fetus and it measures 215 mm.
FL is femur length of the fetus and it measures 51mm.
BPD is biparietal diameter of the fetus and it measures 70mm.
HC is head circumference and it measures 258 mm.
Hope i have answered your query.

Take Care
