4D Baby Scanning
3D & 4D Ultrasound Scanning
The Brayford Studio is the first centre in Lincolnshire to use this new technology. The Brayford Studio is the only registered and recognised clinic for Nuchal Translucency and Nasal Bone Measurement. 3D & 4D ultrasound scanning is the most recent and highly sophisticated technology. It has revolutionised the way we can visualise, examine and see the developing baby in utero. Parents find 3D ultrasound scanning and 4D ultrasound scanning very reassuring that that baby is developing normally.
Normal 2D Ultrasound is made of black and white images. 3D ultrasound scanning provides visualisation of the baby in three planes while the fourth dimension is the movement and the depth of the scan. Coloured pictures make it very real as if the baby is viewed outside the mother's womb.
3D Ultrasound scan has revolutionised not only obstetrics and gynaecology but also all other branches of both diagnostics and clinical medicine. Since Professor Ian Donald had introduced 2D Ultrasound scan in the early 20th century, there is hardly any day where 2D ultrasound scans, 3D ultrasound scans and 4D ultrasound scans has not been performed for one reason or another in the clinical practice. The practice of Obstetrics & Gynaecology is very much inter-linked with 2d ultrasound scanning, 3D Ultrasound Scanning and 4D Ultrasound Scanning. It is therefore an integral part of the speciality and every day medicine. Both Colour and Power Doppler are further development, which are so important in examining and evaluating fetal health, physiology cardiac function and fetal circulation. This is particularly important in assessing cardiac disease in the fetus.
The other major advance is the application of the third dimension, (3D), Ultrasound to obstetrics and there is no doubt that this will provide a further new insight into fetal disease. This is not only for the parents who will for the first time truly see their unborn baby and its health, abnormality or otherwise but also for the clinician who will be able to provide more accurate counselling following examination of the 3D ultrasound images and 4D ultrasound images.
