In pregnancies between 20 and 28 weeks, the correlation of AFI values perpendicular to floor and perpendicular to the uterine contour remains moderate, either measurement can be used to estimate amniotic fluid volume. The correlation for SDP is poor and it remains uncertain which technique, perpendicular to floor or perpendicular to uterine contour, should be used for estimating amniotic fluid volume.
