Benefits of 3D Ultrasounds

Benefits of 3D Ultrasounds

A consistent part of prenatal medical care are ultrasounds to give pregnant women and their families; the first few looks at their baby. According to the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, there are no reports of any problems arising from ultrasounds on the fetus, but most patients need very few scans. 2D ultrasounds have mainly been used in the past. However, 3D ultrasounds have been up and coming. There are various benefits to 3D ultrasounds in regards to seeing more of the developing baby and any health issues that may arise. 

What is a 3D Ultrasound?

3D Ultrasound Long Island

The ultrasound has made it possible for humans to see inside their bodies and how all organs work inside a living body. It has been a more recent discovery that 3D ultrasounds are the best way to look into the human body to see any abnormalities or pregnancies. The three-dimensional ultrasound helps look at three 90 degree angles of the baby or organs instead of only the surface level. The 3D ultrasounds work with surface rendering, which uses the sound waves directed at different angles that are allowing the receiving end to view the imaging as three dimensions. 3D ultrasounds are not only used in obstetrics but also in cardiology, vascular imaging, respiratory care, and more. 

3D Ultrasound in Obstetrics

A more detailed version of developing babies in the womb is possible for parents, medical professionals, and sonographers by 3D ultrasounds. This technology allows an enhanced view of the womb, including seeing and hearing your baby’s heartbeat. This can be the most exciting experience at the beginning of a pregnancy. 3D Ultrasounds make it possible for parents and medical providers to see the outlines of the internal organs of the fetus that can help point out any abnormalities. High-risk pregnancies benefit greatly from the more advanced 3D ultrasounds rather than the usual 2D ultrasound. The more advanced technology makes it easier to see abnormalities in the fetus. If you have any more questions or concerns about 3D ultrasounds in Long Island, contact the medical professionals at Women4Women.
