Fetal growth restriction

Join us on Sunday 8 February 2026 for our advanced livestreamed education course on ‘Fetal growth restriction’ led by Prof. Asma Khalil and A/Prof. Conrado Coutinho with our panel of dedicated international experts. A full day of 8 hours of online learning.

The course offers a comprehensive and cutting-edge exploration of fetal growth assessment and fetal growth restriction (FGR), guided by an international faculty of leading experts. Participants will gain insights into the latest innovations in AI-enhanced growth charts, advances in fetal therapy, and artificial womb technology. The program is divided into focused sessions covering foundational standards, early and late FGR, with in-depth discussions on screening, prevention, management protocols from multiple global perspectives (ISUOG, SMFM, FIGO), and surveillance strategies. Interactive panel discussions and live Q&A sessions with faculty will deepen understanding, while refreshed breaks provide time for networking and reflection. This intensive learning experience is designed to enhance clinical decision-making and application of advanced ultrasound techniques in fetal medicine.

This course is relevant to obstetricians, sonographers, midwives, and anyone involved in antenatal care of pregnant women.

Why attend?

Learning objectives:

Understand the role of artificial intelligence in fetal growth assessment, including the use of AI-enhanced growth charts compared to traditional methods.
