An ultrasound is an exciting opportunity to get a first glimpse of your new baby. Images created by traditional 2D ultrasound technology cannot compare as a first portrait. Two-dimensional ultrasound produce black-and-white swirls and streaks for images, making it is very difficult in some settings, to identify the different bits of baby's anatomy.
In contrast, 3D scan creates a much more realistic and lifelike image. The ultrasound probe takes a number of images (which the sonographer might call 'slices' or 'planes'), and the computer assembles them into a 3D image, complete with depth and surface details. Three D ultrasound is also color-enhanced, so you can see subtle surface details like facial features and fingers.
The vast majority of the time, 3D scan ultrasound will introduce you to your baby and reassure you that he or she is healthy and developing just right. If your main concern is the overall health and well being of the baby we also have a more detailed scan service where we specifically look for any obvious abnormalities. This scan is done in 2D so that all babies organs can be assessed.
