Correlation Between Cervical Lengths Measured by Transabdominal and Transvaginal Sonography for Predicting Preterm Birth

Conclusions—
Women whose cervical lengths are measurable and long on transabdominal sonography may not need transvaginal sonography. Women whose cervical lengths are unmeasurable or short (<2 or <2.5 cm) on transabdominal sonography should undergo transvaginal sonography to measure cervical lengths for prediction of preterm birth.
