Kidney length was measured in 115 unselected neonates with portable real-time ultrasound. The left kidney was slightly, but significantly, longer than the right. There was a positive correlation between kidney length and birthweight, but kidney size did not increase significantly after 36 weeks gestation. Further ultrasound studies of the newborn kidney will be of interest.
对115名未经挑选的新生儿使用便携式实时超声测量肾脏长度。左肾略长于右肾，但差异有统计学意义。肾脏长度与出生体重呈正相关，但孕36周后肾脏大小无显著增加。对新生儿肾脏进行进一步的超声研究将会很有意义。
