The method know as 3d ultrasound scanning is that can be used when a woman is in early pregnancy, it can provide 3d pictures of the unborn baby. Most of the time these pictures are collated and combined and animated to created a 4d ultrasound scan. Three dimensional scanning works in a similar way to the usual ultrasound methods except that the ultrasound waves are directed from multiple directions. The waves are reflected back then captured to provide info to construct a 3-dimensional picture in in the same way as 3d pictures. 3d ultasound scanning was devised by olaf ramm and stephen smith. It is important to understand that sonologists worldwide have always conjured three-dimensional images of the body in their minds while doing 2d scans. However, until recently it was impossible to do this kind of reconstruction on on info using ultasound scanning. With the introduction of baby scans for the first time allowed us a peek into the mechanics of thinking of a sonologist and hence letting us view the images on the ultrasound machine. 3d imaging should utilize ultrasound energy following the same limits as conventional 2d ultrasound to create the 3d images. There is no data to suggest harm due to 3d ultasound scanning, its use in non-medical situations needs to be undertaken with an understanding of the risks involved.
