Prenatal check ups are very important for every pregnant woman. Through relevant examinations, the physical condition of pregnant women can be examined, as well as the growth of the fetus. There are also many items that need to be checked during pregnancy, and 4D ultrasound is one of them. So, when is the best week for the fetus to undergo 4D ultrasound?
Four dimensional ultrasound is more suitable for women around 24-28 weeks of pregnancy. Because at 24 weeks of pregnancy, the development of fetal brain, organs, limbs, facial features, and other parts is basically completed, the amount of amniotic fluid is also relatively large, and the fetal activity space is large, which is convenient for doctors to observe in detail through ultrasound.
Performing four-dimensional color ultrasound is to observe the size and specific development of the fetus, with a focus on screening for any abnormalities in the fetus, including facial and visceral abnormalities such as congenital heart disease, limb loss or shortening, spina bifida, etc. In addition, the position of the placenta can be observed to detect the velocity of umbilical cord blood flow. Four dimensional ultrasound can also dynamically observe fetal activities in real time, and pregnant mothers can intuitively observe fetal activities such as yawning or limb movements through the screen.
Pregnant women should pay attention to doing four-dimensional ultrasound according to the doctor's guidance, and also make relevant preparations during the examination. You can make an appointment in advance and wear loose fitting clothes for easy inspection. Pregnant women should also regulate their emotions and not be too nervous to avoid affecting the test results.
