♦ The common iliac artery for the fetal position (light grey) is co-registered with that for the supine position (dark grey) in the same coordinate system (S). Three orthogonal unit vectors in right-left, superior-inferior, and AP directions are used as reference vectors for co-registration. Note that the CIA exhibits significant translation-inducing morphological changes from the supine to fetal positions.
