The overall aim of this thesis is to establish an accurate and reliable description of new in vivo biometric and volumetric measurements in the first trimester of pregnancy using 3D ultrasound datasets, analyzed using an innovative VR system. These new measurements, which make optimal use of all three dimensions, will form a basis for follow-up studies describing the abnormal development of embryonic and early fetal life.
