Sheila Belloise commented on Kathi Keaton Borok's group AIUM Journal Club
"I agree that outflows should be included on all anatomy studies. I believe the SMFM guidlines list the outflows to be obtained if technically possible on the 76805 study as well. The standard of care in our area is to obtain these views on any…"
