Ultrasound does not have any radioactive matter involved in its process. It is based on sounds being bounced from one object back to the "sonar" unit which looks like a small wand with a wide mouth. There are large ultrasound units too and they do not involve radiation either. It is safe for humans and the babies in the uteri.

If you have been recommended by a physician to under go an ultrasound for a diagnostic purpose you should do it. If you merely want to know the sex of a baby that would be your choice. The baby should be monitored carefully and ultrasound helps the medical personnel to check the baby for problems or good health.

If you care about yourself you would do the ultrasound diagnostic procedure.
