As our focus this month is on the heart, we have provided you free access to Prof. Rabih Chaoui's lecture on "Cardiac ultrasound: the heart of the matter", which he delivered when receiving the Stuart Campbell Award for Education at the 2018 ISUOG World Congress.

The February issue of Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology includes a systematic review on the impact of low-dose aspirin on adverse perinatal outcome, a study on non-invasive prenatal testing for aneuploidy in 31 515 singleton pregnancies, a study on the value of routine ultrasound examination at 35–37 weeks in the diagnosis of non-cephalic presentation, and a study on the learning curve for detection of the pelvic parts of the ureters on transvaginal sonography.

In this month’s newsletter you can find important updates and further information about our 30th World Congress and abstract submission, a wide variety of research on topics such as the systematic review on the impact of low-dose aspirin on adverse perinatal outcome, ISUOG’s upcoming events and education courses, this month's Journal highlights, a new volunteer opportunity with ISUOG, and much more. In addition to the upcoming ISUOG World Congress, the unmissable leading event in the field of ultrasound in obstetrics and gynecology, there are other ISUOG events to save the date for! There are two ISUOG Education courses coming your way: Advances in Fetal Echocardiography on February 21-22, 200 in London, UK (and livestreamed) and the ISUOG and SMFM joint symposium on State-of-the-Art-Ultrasound in Pregnancy on 16-18 April 2020 in Washington DC, USA.

Hear from our newly appointed Trustee, Prof. Fabricio Da Silva Costa
