What is an elective prenatal Ultrasound?

Elective prenatal ultrasounds are 2D, 3D, 4D, and 5D HD scans that enhance bonding experiences for parents with their baby before birth. They are not substitutes for routine diagnostic ultrasounds but are used to connect families with the baby.

Does this take the place of an Ultrasound at my doctor’s office?

No, elective ultrasounds do not replace medical ultrasounds. Expecting mothers must have seen a provider for prenatal care, and the evidence of any abnormalities will be communicated with the patient's provider.

Is there a best time to get 3D/4D images?

It is recommended to get 3D/4D images between 28 to 34 weeks of pregnancy for optimal imaging results.

Is it safe? Are there any risks to me, or my baby?

Extensive studies show no harmful effects from ultrasound. The techniques used in 3D, 4D, and HD ultrasounds are the same as conventional 2D ultrasounds, ensuring safety during scans.

Will I always get a beautiful picture of my baby?

While every effort will be made to capture beautiful images, factors like the baby’s position can affect the results. Each scan experience is unique.

What happens if you see something wrong with my baby?

If an abnormality is detected during the scan, the registered technologist will notify your doctor, and you will be informed to follow up.

What can I do to prepare for my exam?

Hydrate and schedule your exam during active times for your baby. For first or second-trimester scans, a full bladder is recommended.

How do I schedule an appointment?

Appointments can be scheduled via an online form or by calling the facility. Walk-ins are not accepted.

Should I plan my gender reveal party for the same day as my scan for gender determination?

It is not recommended, as some babies can be uncooperative, and determining gender is not guaranteed.
