What Is A Fetus Ultrasound For?
November 29th, 2009 by admin
Fetus-ultrasound is a test done during pregnancy that uses reflected sound waves to produce a picture of a fetus, the organ that nourishes the fetus (placenta), and the liquid that surrounds the fetus (amniotic fluid). The picture is displayed on a TV screen and may be in black and white or in color. The pictures are also called a sonogram, echogram, or scan, and they may be saved as part of your baby’s record. Fetal ultrasound is the safest way to check for problems and get information about your fetus, such as its size and position.
