Is there harm in a pregnant woman having a 4D ultrasound?

Patient's question:

I want to go for prenatal check-up and have a 4D ultrasound, but I heard that 4D ultrasound for pregnant women is harmful. Is that true?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, 4D color ultrasound doesn't pose significant harm, so there's no need to worry. It's recommended to follow medical advice and actively enhance nutrition. You can book an appointment at any time. 4D color ultrasound can still help with fetal anomaly screening, so it's important to pay attention to the estimated due date. Eating small, frequent meals in these days would be better. Check the fetal movement to see if it's normal. It's recommended to perform 4D color ultrasound around the 6th week for more accurate results.
There are many treatment methods for 4D color ultrasound, but since the symptoms of patients vary, the treatment methods used will also differ. Therefore, it's advised that patients seek diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible after noticing symptoms.
