Fetal Head Circumference derived from occipital-frontal diameter and outer-outer transaxial diameter (US)   11982-6

LOINC Code


LOINC code11982-6
nameFetal Head Circumference derived from occipital-frontal diameter and outer-outer transaxial diameter (US)
descriptionDerived from measures of occipital-frontal diameter and transaxial diameter assuming shape is an ellipse. The outer to outer transaxial diameter is used. This estimate should be closer to that measured with ellipse overlay or by tracing.

propertyLen  =  Length
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemHead^Fetus
scaleQn  =  Quantitative:  The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256
