Registration with PSO at BORN Ontario gives sonographers and physicians access to their personalized NT performance distributions via the BORN Information System (BIS) and allows them to receive information on Ontario's nuchal translucency quality assurance (NTQA) program.

Physicians who report NT measurements acquired by sonographers should ensure that sonographers are complying with the guidance above and the expectations of Ontario's NTQA program.

Physicians who report, but do not scan NT ultrasounds do not require an Ontario NT ID number. PSO recommends that these physicians complete the Fetal Medicine Foundation (FMF) 11-13 weeks scan course to refresh their knowledge on proper NT measurement protocol.
