1. To describe the issues related to proper (safe) interpretation of first trimester pregnancy ultrasound including definitely normal, definitely abnormal and indeterminate studies requiring follow up. 2. To list the findings diagnostic of pregnancy failure on ultrasound. 3. To review the findings suspicious for, but not diagnostic of, pregnancy failure on ultrasound. 4. To discuss the management of pregnancy of unknown location with normal or near normal adnexa.  

1. Normal early intrauterine pregnancies (IUP) will be shown focusing on pregnancies ranging between 4-8 weeks gestational age 2. Abnormal early IUP will be shown ranging from definitive failure based on a single ultrasound, to examples with poor prognostic indicators that require follow up 3. Management of pregnancy of unknown location with normal or near normal adnexa will be discussed, focusing on patients with sac-like structures in the uterus and those without fluid in the uterus.
