Table showing the performance per plane (HC only, AC only, FL only, and MultiPlane) in the INTERGROWTH-21st test set (2a) and the INTERBIO-21st external validation set (2b).

HC Head Circumference, AC Abdominal Circumference, FL Femur Length, MAE Mean Absolute Error, CI Confidence Interval.

aAs not all planes were available for all participants, MultiPlane is based on 2304 participants.
