upper and lower respiratory system arise from
foregut
From what germinal layer do the lungs develop?

How does the echogenicity of the lungs compare to the echogenicity of the liver in 2nd trimester
lungs isoechoic to liver
How does the echogenicity of the lungs compare to the echogenicity of the liver in 3rd trimester
lungs slightly echogenic / hyperechoic
How we can assess the fetal lung maturity
amniocentesis to measure measure L/S Ratio (lecithin/sphingomyelin ratio) of amniotic fluid
How could lungs maturity be increased if C-Section is needed
give surfactant to increase maturity
