Czech term

VF

Czech to English Medical Medical: Health Care Paediatric medical report
Context:

VF .... X .... cm

Comes with various measuresments:

VF 0.5 X 0.5 cm,
VF 2 X 2 cm,
VF 1.5 X 0.5 cm

Usually after the baby's length, weight and head circumference

I think the V might stand for "velká" but cannot work out this acronym.

Anterior fontanelle

VF = velká fontanela (in Czech) or anterior (frontal) fontanelle in English. It is the soft spot on a baby's head. The anterior (frontal) fontanelle is the large one. Then there is the posterior fontanelle that is smaller.

Large fontanelle

This translation would be consistent with the Czech source text (velká fontanela - which is what the doctor chose to use).
