WHY IS ULTRASOUND USED?
Even though Ultrasound is not necessary for every woman
or in every pregnancy, the information it provides and with its safety, at least one
ultrasound of every woman is done around 20th week. Your doctor will discuss
with you whether ultrasound will be used and how often it should be done to best suit the
health and well being of your baby.
Ultrasound is often used by the doctor, along with information from your medical
background and physical exams, to detect a problem or to monitor a condition. In almost
all cases, ultrasound will be used with other exams and tests needed to diagnose and treat
a problem.
