Types of pregnancy ultrasounds we provide include:
Bio-Physical Profile (BPP)
BPP uses ultrasound technology to visualize the baby and to evaluate its movements. The movements of the arms and legs, breathing, and stretching motions are evaluated for 10 to 30 minutes. The amount of activity is a measurement of the health of the baby.
Fetal ultrasound
Fetal ultrasound creates an image of the baby in the mother's womb (uterus). It’s a safe way to check the health of an unborn baby. During a fetal ultrasound, the baby’s heart, head, and spine are evaluated, along with other parts of the baby. Fetal ultrasound is a routine part of prenatal care in the U.S. and can check for defects or other problems in the fetus.
Pregnancy ultrasounds are done in the Antenatal Testing Unit (ATU), which provides routine testing for pregnant patients, as well as specialized care for those experiencing complications during pregnancy.
