Longitud Cráneo-Raquis (LCR)

16:50 Oct 26, 2020 

Not sure why the different names in Spanish (I am familiar with longitud cráneo-caudal or cefalocaudal), but longitud cráneo-raquis is understandable as it describes what is measured, this is, both the cranium lenght and the vertebral column or rachis lenght -rather than stating the initial and end points of the given measure. And so, yes, crown-rump lenght it is.

My other standard source for Spanish-English medical acronyms is, of course, Cosnautas.com. They have CRL #7: longitud cráneo-raquis {→ LCC 10}. LCC #10 has: longitud craneocaudal (o cefalocaudal) || ≡ LCR (longitud cráneo-raquis).
I don't know if the use of the different variants is a function of geography (Spain vs. the Americas?) or some other factor(s).

Raquis in this connection is a little confusing to me. The base meaning of raquis seems to be more like spine, or DLE has "columna vertebral".
Ian Beattie has Spanish LCR, "longitud craneo-rabadilla," = English "crown-rump length," CRL. But then he also has Spanish "CRL," "longitud craneo-nalga," "longitud cráneo-raquis," "longitud céfalocaudal," & "longitud vértice-nalgas" = English "crown-rump length," CRL.

I think so. I couldn't find it either. Other spanish terms in use: Longitud céfalo-caudal
Longitud coronilla-rabadilla. The results of this echo are used to estimate how long the woman has been pregnant.

Could it be this??
CRL (crown-rump length), the length from the top of the head to your baby's bottom, measurement taken in the first trimester
