Fetal echocardiography: reference values for the Chinese population.

The article discusses the study that aimed to establish normal reference ranges of fetal cardiac dimensions between 20 and 34 weeks from fetal echocardiograms noted at one center in China, as global racial variability in human development can result to fetal cardiac structure size differences. Topics discussed include increase in measurements of fetal cardiac structures with advancing gestational age (GA), and study data to provide reference values of fetal echocardiography in China.
