Can 3D color ultrasound detect fetal abnormalities?

Three-dimensional color ultrasound can be used for fetal malformation screening, because it is performed using a three-dimensional dynamic diagnostic device, which can observe the development process of the fetus. It can be used to check whether the fetus has incomplete development of limbs and internal organs to determine whether the fetus has developmental deformities. Regarding the method of 3D color ultrasound to rule out fetal abnormalities, we can understand the contents introduced in this article and treat the examination results of 3D color ultrasound correctly.

Can 3D color Doppler ultrasound detect fetal anomalies?

Yes, 3D color ultrasound can be used for fetal anomaly screening. Three-dimensional color ultrasound is a color Doppler ultrasound diagnostic instrument with three-dimensional dynamic display. Its function is the same as that of ordinary color ultrasound. Simply put, color ultrasound is high-definition black and white B-ultrasound plus color Doppler.

Three-dimensional color ultrasound surface imaging is used in obstetric examinations. It can not only observe the growth process of the fetus, but also check the changes in the placenta, amniotic fluid and umbilical cord. More importantly, it can be used as the main means of diagnosing fetal malformations. because

The grayscale contrast between tissue structure and liquid is large, which can clearly display the three-dimensional morphology, surface features, and spatial position relationship of suspicious structures, and provide a three-dimensional image of the fetus in the uterus. Three-dimensional reconstruction includes surface imaging, transparent imaging and multi-plane imaging modes. Its advantage is: adding coronal section images while retaining two-dimensional imaging. Stereo positioning, axis adjustment, the three axis planes ABC can be adjusted at will until the best image is displayed. Stereoscopic imaging is dynamic and intuitive; it can observe the fetal head, body surface and internal organs activities in real time, and the images are clear, accurate and reliable. The cutting function can retain the key points of the image, cut off the useless parts, and perform 3D reconstruction and display of the suspicious parts. The rotation function allows for multi-faceted observation; it has 360° rotation functions, front and back, left and right, up and down, allowing for comprehensive observation of images from different directions. You can take beautiful photos of the fetus, record its facial expressions and burn them to a CD for storage as a permanent commemoration. It can display the three-dimensional relationship and adjacent relationship of lesions at different levels. The application of three-dimensional color ultrasound in obstetrics provides rich imaging information for clinical ultrasound diagnosis. The fetus is surrounded by fluid in the amniotic cavity, which is a good imaging condition for three-dimensional ultrasound. The image is three-dimensional, vivid and intuitive, and the angle can be adjusted at will. Suspicious structures can be observed through the rotation of three sections, and the gross structural deformities of the fetus can be seen at a glance, which greatly improves the quality of diagnosis and treatment and reduces misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis.

The difference between 3D and 4D color Doppler ultrasound

The full name of four-dimensional color ultrasound is four-dimensional color ultrasound diagnostic instrument, which is the most advanced color ultrasound equipment in the world. Since four-dimensional color ultrasound can produce surface images, congenital malformations of the fetus such as cleft lip and palate, limb malformations, meningocele, spina bifida, and abdominal wall cleft can be detected more clearly. The diagnostic data from four-dimensional color ultrasound can also help doctors make judgments. "Checking the development of the fetus and screening for congenital diseases is the most important thing."

The difference between three-dimensional color ultrasound and four-dimensional color ultrasound lies in the "time dimension", that is, three-dimensional color ultrasound is a picture, and four-dimensional color ultrasound is a video, which allows pregnant mothers to see a series of movements of the fetus. Four-dimensional color ultrasound is different from traditional three-dimensional color ultrasound. Three-dimensional color ultrasound is a color Doppler ultrasound diagnostic instrument with three-dimensional dynamic display. Three-dimensional color ultrasound is a three-dimensional dynamic display of the fetal condition, mainly used to examine fetal tumors, umbilical cord diseases, and heart diseases. Four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound

It is more accurate to check fetal malformations. If it is a fetal malformation examination, a four-dimensional color ultrasound examination is best.

Unlike three-dimensional color ultrasound, four-dimensional color ultrasound can not only feel the baby's breathing and movement, but more importantly, it can observe the growth and development of the fetus in the uterus from multiple directions and angles, providing an accurate scientific basis for the early diagnosis of congenital surface malformations and congenital heart diseases of the fetus. It can also witness their every move and well-behaved appearance with your own eyes, and can complete the collection and analysis of volume data within seconds to minutes, clearly and intuitively display the condition of the fetus's face. To put it more vividly, three-dimensional color ultrasound is not dynamic, which is equivalent to a photo, while four-dimensional color ultrasound is dynamic, which is equivalent to a video.
