Doppler waves of middle cerebral artery (MCA) can predict most of the at risk fetuses in high risk pregnancies. In this study, we tried to obtain normal values and their nomograms during pregnancy for Doppler flow velocity indices of MCA in 20 \u2013 40 weeks of normal pregnancies in Iranian population and compare their pattern with other countries' nomograms.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>During present descriptive cross-sectional study, 1037 normal pregnant women with 20<jats:sup>th<\/jats:sup>\u201340<jats:sup>th<\/jats:sup> week gestational age were underwent MCA Doppler study.
