Comparing ultrasound and MRI for estimating baby's weight
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways to estimate a larger-than-average baby's weight before birth: ultrasound and MRI. If you have a single baby at full term and your doctor thinks your baby may be big, this study may help improve how well we predict birth weight.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are pregnant with one baby only.
- You are at least 37 weeks pregnant (full term).
- Your doctor thinks your baby may be larger than average (suspected macrosomia).
- No known birth defects or abnormalities in your baby.
- Your water has not broken yet.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests how well ultrasound can predict if a baby will be born larger than normal (macrosomia) within 24 hours of delivery. It might help parents and doctors plan for a safer birth.
This trial tests whether an artificial intelligence (AI) tool can more accurately estimate a baby's weight using ultrasound, compared to standard methods. If you're about to give birth, this study may help improve how doctors predict your baby's size.
This study tests whether specific ultrasound measurements taken just before delivery can accurately predict your baby's weight. Researchers will measure your baby's belly, thigh soft tissue, and leg bone length to see if these measurements help doctors estimate birth weight more precisely.
This study looks at whether measuring the thickness of the baby's belly fat with ultrasound can help predict the baby's weight before birth. This is for women at full term (37 to 42 weeks) with one baby.
This study looks at whether advanced MRI scan settings can give useful information about a pregnancy in real-world clinical care. It may help doctors decide how to manage the pregnancy, including for some people considering termination.
This trial tests a method to estimate a baby's weight before delivery, using measurements taken without knowing other details. It may help doctors better predict birth weight in the last weeks of pregnancy.
