abstract：:The gestational age and litter size in the guinea pig can be accurately assessed by taking an x-ray of the animal. From a measurement of the fetal head length on the x-ray plate a fetal weight can be calculated using previously accumulated data, included here. The gestational age can be assessed from this weight to wi...
