What is a 3D Ultrasound?

3D Ultrasound is a new application for ultrasound technology. Conventional 2D Obstetric Ultrasound, which you are probably already familiar with, uses sound waves to visualize baby images. 3D ultrasound sends sound waves at different angles to create a recognizable visualization of the baby in the womb, so you can see details such as facial features, toes, and fingers. The application of 4D Ultrasound introduces time to 3D ultrasound, and thus baby is seen moving in real time. At 3DBabyVu, we use both 3D and 4D ultrasound during scans.
