I can only be glad about one thing: that it was financed by German taxpayers, rather than Americans, as I happen to live in America.<br /><br />How do I hate this? Let me count the ways. <br /><br />1) It assumes that there is such a thing as an inadequate pelvis, that cephalopelvic disproportion actually exists in healthy, ricketts-free women. <br /><br />2)Sarah Dorrance-Minchnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31180029.post-23651957939341912772010-12-09T11:46:03.588-05:002010-12-09T11:46:03.588-05:00Scientifically ("nerdily") speaking, the...Scientifically ("nerdily") speaking, the images are fascinating to me.

But this is long gone. The rate took a steep step in Germany too and is now >30%.

The more they understand our bodies, the more they can interrupt nature.

You also can't get diagnostic-quality pictures without holding completely still, so I would imaging that there would be a great deal of exposure in order to capture occasional clear images.
