The term '''fetus''', as applied to human beings, refers to an individual in a fetal or [[Human embryo|embryonic]] stage of development. It is sometimes spelled 'fœtus' or 'foetus' in British English, although this is considered incorrect by the British medical community, which uses the term 'fetus'.
