Maternal body mass index (BMI) and other factors can impair quality. Aberration correction (AC) aims to reduce image quality degradation. This prospective observational study assessed the effect of AC on fetal ultrasound image quality and biometric measurements.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Routine ultrasound images of the fetal head, abdomen, and heart were analyzed. The image quality score (IQS) and biometric measurements, including the circumference of the head, abdomen, and heart, were compared before and after AC. Intraclass correlations (ICC) were used to describe intra\u2010 and inter\u2010observer agreement of measurements. Secondary objective evaluated IQS subcomponents and outcomes stratified by BMI.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The study included 186 images from 62 patients. IQS were significantly higher in AC\u2010images (median 14) compared with no\u2010AC images (median 13.5), with significance observed across both BMI groups and a more pronounced effect in the normal BMI group. Intra\u2010 and inter\u2010observer agreement for cardiac circumference improved after AC (0.907 to 0.987 and 0.873 to 0.925). For other measurements, agreement was excellent (&gt;0.9) regardless of AC or BMI.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Aberration correction improved obstetric ultrasound by enhancing image quality and increasing the reliability of biometric measurements, particularly of smaller fetal structures.
