Patient's question:
My wife is about three months pregnant. Let's keep a record of the fetus's growth and development to check for any abnormalities. Is it necessary to have a 4D ultrasound?Doctor's answer:
Three months is when you can have an ultrasound to check the NT thickness. If the NT thickness is not qualified, the possibility of recurrence of deformities will be relatively much higher. At three months, a 4D color Doppler ultrasound cannot be clearly seen. A 4D color Doppler ultrasound needs to wait until 24 weeks, which is six months, to be clearly seen.At three months, a check for NT thickness, and at 16 weeks, a check for the Trospective Screening (Trospective Screening) to predict. There are many methods for 4D color Doppler ultrasound treatment, but because the patient's condition is different, the treatment methods used will also be different. Therefore, patients need to have timely checks and diagnoses to treat the symptoms accordingly.
