3D, 4D, and 5D Ultrasound are ultrasound techniques that allow us to obtain more defined and realistic three-dimensional images of the fetus.
3D ultrasound is a technique that allows us to obtain three-dimensional images of the fetus. While in conventional scanning, ultrasound waves are emitted in a straight line, in 3D fetal scanning, the waves are sent at different angles. This shows a reconstructed image of the volume of the fetus’s surface or its internal organs but without showing movement.
4D ultrasound is similar to 3D ultrasound, with the difference being associated with time: 4D offers a three-dimensional moving image of the baby.
The 5D ultrasound can perform a more defined and realistic reconstruction of the fetus. The new generation of high-resolution ultrasound machines decisively increases diagnostic capacity and the detection of fetal malformations. This technology offers a much more defined and realistic reconstruction of any structure that needs to be observed.
The 3D, 4D, and 5D technology can be used anytime during pregnancy; however, the best images are obtained between weeks 24 and 32, ideally, between weeks 26 and 30. In our center, we advise our patients to come between weeks 28 and 32 to get the best images.
After 32 weeks, the fetus is highly likely to have descended into the pelvis, making it almost impossible to obtain 3D images. Also, as the baby is larger, there is less space, making it more difficult to get a good image.
Some basic measures help us get better baby photos, such as going to the bathroom to urinate to empty the bladder before the study, and not eating immediately before the consultation.
No, ultrasound is completely safe for your pregnancy and for the baby.
In addition to the unique experience of seeing the baby’s face and getting to know them before birth, these ultrasounds place specialists in an optimal position for the diagnosis of externally visible anomalies, such as cleft lip, or internal defects, such as neural tube defects, brain lesions, heart abnormalities, or skeletal system issues in the fetus.
We can identify certain anomalies, such as cleft lips or problems in the limbs, that may not be visible in a traditional ultrasound.
The procedure typically lasts for approximately 15 to 45 minutes.
No, it is not an invasive method. Being an ultrasound study, it poses no risk to your pregnancy or baby. No needles, incisions, or any other type of intervention in the body are required.
No anesthesia is applied for this procedure. It is painless and does not cause discomfort other than a slight sensation of cold caused by the gel.
While we perform the ultrasound, you and your companion can see the baby in real time. During the procedure, our maternal-fetal doctors will explain the findings to you. Within 24 to 48 hours, we will send an official written report with the conclusions and all the images we took of the baby to your email and your doctor’s.

It is performed between the 11th and 14th week, and with it, we can know how many weeks of pregnancy you have and if there is a risk of Down Syndrome.
It is a blood test that detects two placental hormones; it improves the detection of Down Syndrome, Preeclampsia, and growth restriction.
