Accurate GA estimation is necessary when early termination of pregnancy is necessary as soon as the fetus becomes mature e.g. cases of pre-eclampsia, chronic renal disease, severe intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR), diabetes and placenta praevia centralis. Accurate GA estimation is also necessary where certain tests need to be performed for example amniotic fluid and serum assays, chorionic villus sampling and to plan fetal therapies.
