According to a study from Siena, Italy, "A multinormal probability model is proposed to correct human errors in fetal echobiometry and improve the estimation of fetal weight (EFW). Model parameters were designed to depend on major pregnancy data and were estimated through feed-forward artificial neural networks (ANNs)."

"Data from 4075 women in labour were used for training and testing ANNs. The model was implemented numerically to provide EFW together with probabilities of congruence among measured echobiometric parameters. It enabled ultrasound measurement errors to be real-time checked and corrected interactively. The software was useful for training medical staff...
