4D Ultrasound: what it is and when to do it

Among the services we offer in the prenatal diagnostic unit of the EGOM group is the 4D ultrasound. It is very important for many couples because it helps them to strengthen and increase the bond with their child.

It is a very beautiful ultrasound in which you can see the baby’s face, its movements, its gestures, some other parts of the body sometimes. And, really, it is a moment of great satisfaction for the mother and also for the father.

What makes this center different?

The difference of doing it with us is that it is not only an emotional 4D ultrasound but what we call a complete ultrasound. It is performed by a gynecologist who is an expert in prenatal diagnosis and fetal medicine, and parameters such as growth, the amount of amniotic fluid and others are also studied, which assure us of fetal well-being.

In addition, we have four attempts to perform the images, two one day and two another, without that entailing an increase in the price of the same.

And finally we have, fortunately, a Voluson E8 ultrasound with the latest technology, including 4D Live, which is a way that gives even more realistic images.

In the EGOM group, in our fetal medicine unit, we recommend performing this ultrasound between 26 and 28 weeks because we think that is when the images are beautiful and there is enough margin for us to obtain satisfactory images.
