Objective: To evaluate the use of placental volume measured by three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound in predicting fetal homozygous α 0-thalassemia (Hb-Bart's disease). Methods: From June 2002 to May 2004 singleton pregnancies at risk of α 0-thalassemia and normal controls were studied prospectively at 9-12 weeks of gestation. Affected fetuses were suspected to have α 0-thalassemia by two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound and confirmed by DNA analysis. Placental volume was measured on 3D ultrasound by a multiplanar technique. Intra- and interobserver agreement of measurements was assessed. The placental volume/crown-rump length quotient of the affected fetuses was compared with that of normal fetuses. Results: The final study group comprised 105 preg...
