Summary

To improve the quality of fetal ultrasound images, self assessment is less resource consuming than assessment by an expert reviewer, and may be as effective.

To test this hypothesis, we randomize volunteer experienced ultrasonographers into two groups.

One group assess their own images (self assessment). The other group has their images assessed by an expert. Images are audited via the internet in a standardized procedure that generates feedback with recommendation for change.

Three to 6 months later, participants are audited again. If the improvement in image quality turns to be the same in both groups, it will be likely that self assessment is indeed as effective as assessment by an expert reviewer - at least for professionals experienced in fetal ultrasound.
