Accurate gestational age (GA) estimation, preferably by ultrasound measurement of fetal crown rump length before 14 weeks' gestation, is an important component of high-quality antenatal care. The objective was to determine how GA can best be estimated by fetal ultrasound for women who present for the first time late in pregnancy with uncertain or unknown menstrual dates.

The objective was to determine how GA can best be estimated by fetal ultrasound for women who present for the first time late in pregnancy with uncertain or unknown menstrual dates.
