Is 4D ultrasound similar to the baby born?

Patient's question:

I have an appointment for a 4D color Doppler ultrasound at the hospital tomorrow. It is said that the image will be clear enough to see the baby's appearance. Is the 4D color Doppler ultrasound similar to the baby after birth?

Doctor's answer:

4D ultrasound can help people who are not familiar with medicine to see the appearance of the fetus more intuitively. However, during the growth and development process of the child, changes are relatively rapid. Therefore, unless you do a 4D ultrasound in the last few days before delivery, there will still be some differences compared to the time of birth. In terms of medicine, there is not much difference between 4D ultrasound and regular ultrasound, so it is not necessary to do it unless there is a special requirement. In fact, getting a 4D ultrasound is not something to be afraid of. The patient should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as the symptoms are detected in time and treated accordingly, the chances of stabilizing the condition and recovering are very high.
