Currently available sonographic growth standards for fetal head size, abdominal size, and limb length are based primarily on studies from white populations. To determine whether these published standards are appropriate for a racially mixed, indigent population, we compared our published data from a middle-class white population with data generated from a black/Hispanic population seen at a county hospital in Houston, Texas. No statistically significant differences were found for any of the following fetal sonographic parameters (20 to 41 weeks): biparietal diameter, head circumference, abdominal circumference, femur length.
