[Evaluation of a proximity training program of nuchal translucency measurements and of self-scoring].

Objective: Improvement in prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome imposes to sonographers to realize good quality nuchal translucency measurements, which can be used for assessment of combined risk. The aim of our study was to evaluate a training program of 109 sonographers for measuring nuchal translucency and scoring their own image.

Study Design: After a proximity training program, trainees submitted 20 images scored by themselves with Herman image-scoring method.
