In obsteric and gynaecological imaging, the cervical length (CL) is defined as the length between the internal cervical os and the external cervical os. the cervical length is most accurately assessed on a transvaginal scan with an empty bladder. in a normal gravid situation the cervical length is considered to be at least 30 mm (3 cm) the presence of a full bladder can increase the cervical length particularly on a trans-abdominal scan.
For a vaginal delivery, the cervix needs to be 10 centimeters (cm) dilated and 100 percent effaced. While cervical dilation is necessary for labor to progress, being dilated isnât necessarily a sign that true labor is starting. In some cases, women will dilate a few centimeters weeks before their due date. Others will dilate much faster, in just a few hours, and transition quickly between the stages of labor.
