It's so accurate you'll recognize your baby when it's born. Some doctors at San Diego hospitals think of the 4D as a gimmick, saying it gives them little medical information. The pictures are so good that mothers to be have sought these 4D ultrasound shots out in shopping malls in San Diego just to have them for the baby albums.
Differences between standard ultrasound and 4D ?
The main ultrasound doctors use for information is 2D. The 4D is simply 3D with movement.
But these cute pictures have made 4D ultrasounds controversial in the medical world. Are they a toy or are they medically necessary? some doctors OB-GYN in San Diego say the 4D can find birth defects that other scans didn't show.
It helps in some cases with parental bonding. In other cases it gives information, how do the hands look, how do the feet look is there an extra finger.
San Diego hospitals has been ahead of the game on 4D technology. It's had it for some five years. The technology has been available for a decade. It's only recently that new uses are being discovered. Another use is to look for problems with shape of the uterus or fibroids.
Doctors warn women not to have ultrasounds just for the photos. Although it's considered safe, one study found a slight risk to the baby's brain from frequent ultrasounds. They recommend getting ultrasounds in a medical institution where the power settings on the machines are monitored.
