The most popular use of 3D ultrasound is to examine babies while they are still in the uterus. It allows doctors to get a really good look at the fetus and any potential problems.
Ultrasounds :)
The folks who do ultrasounds are generally called ultrasound technicians.
Name the four different types of ultrasounds listed in the CPT manual.
Sonographs refer to the images produced by ultrasounds. Ultrasounds use the properties of sounds at frequencies higher than human hearing piercing through the body at different levels, and using the distance of different reflected parts of the sound generated to create an image.
"Portable ultrasounds can range in a wide variety of price depending on the type of ultrasound system one would be needing and wanting to buy. An ultrasound system which you can use to look for blood clots or check on fetus for example, start at $10,000 and increases in price."
There is no proved data that ultrasounds are hazardous to fetus. However, in routine practice, three ultrasounds are done one in each trimester of pregnancy. These are considered totally safe by all the gynaecologists. Some ladies might have to undergo through more ultrasounds if some fetus anomaly is suspected. There is no evidence that these ultrasounds were harmful to fetus. So ultrasound during pregnancy is totally safe. The number of ultrasounds required are decided by the gynaecologists.

They used to get trans-vaginal ultrasounds. Never heard of trans-rectal ultrasound, but why not? Doctors are very inventive.
Ultrasound Technicians use imaging equipment that sends sound waves to internal organs. They are trained to read and interpret the results.
Someone who takes ultrasounds is typically called a sonographer. They are trained professionals who use ultrasound equipment to create images of the inside of the body, which are used for medical diagnosis and monitoring. In some contexts, they may also be referred to as ultrasound technicians or radiologic technologists specializing in sonography.
No, they are safe.
