Patient's question:
I am four months pregnant now, and my appetite is very big. My belly isn't very big, but according to the rules, I should have felt fetal movement. However, there is still no movement in my belly. I want to go to the hospital for a 4D ultrasound. I ate breakfast this morning and thought about going for the check-up tomorrow.What kind of help I need: Do I need to fast before the 4D ultrasound?
Doctor's answer:
Mothers-to-be do not need to fast for a 4D color ultrasound, and generally no preparation is required. The outstanding ergonomic design of the 4D color ultrasound diagnostic instrument ensures no radiation from X-rays, light waves, or electromagnetic waves, posing no harm to human health. Years of clinical experience have demonstrated that ultrasound imaging diagnostics have not caused any damage or developmental issues in fetuses for pregnant women or other populations. It is a safer and more convenient examination and ultrasound method.4D color ultrasound can provide a comprehensive view of the child's organs:
- Facial abnormalities in the fetus: such as cleft lip and palate.
- Nervous system: anencephaly, hydrocephalus, microcephaly, spina bifida, and meningocele.
- Digestive system: omphalocele, visceral hernia, intestinal atresia, and megacolon.
