The method know as 3d ultrasound is used during early pregnancy, it can provide 3d pictures of the unborn baby. Most times these images are quickly collected and combined to make a “4d ultrasound”.

Three dimensional scanning works in a similar manner to the traditional ultrasound except that the ultrasound scanning waves are sent from many directions. The ultrasound pulses are redirected back then captured to provide info to construct a 3d image in much the same way as 3d pictures. 3 dimesional ultasound scanning was devised by olaf ramm and stephen smith.

It’s important to understand that sonologists all over the world have always conjured 3d images of anatomy or pathology in their minds while carrying out 2d scans. However, until recently it was very difficult to do this kind of reconstruction on on info using ultrasound. With the advent of ultrasound baby scans for the first time allowed us a view into the brain of a sonologist and so letting us see the images on the ultrasound machine.

4d ultrasound imaging should utilize ultrasound energy following the same limits as conventional 2d ultrasound to create the 3d images. There is no data to suggest any harm due to 3d ultasound scanning, its use in none essential situations should be undertaken with an understanding of the risks that exist.
