Frequently Asked Questions:
Who will perform my ultrasound? Only registered personnel
highly skilled in ultrasound technology are employed.
Will insurance pay for my 4-D Ultrasound? No. 4-D Ultrasound
viewing sessions are not medically necessary and are non-diagnostic.
Is there any preparation necessary? No. You do not need a full
bladder. It is also not helpful to drink caffeine or have other stimulants.
An overly active baby is very difficult to photograph.
What should I expect to see? Some babies will image better than
others. Ultrasound is dependent on maternal thickness, fetal position,
and fluid surrounding baby. With a cooperative baby you may see baby
play with fingers and toes or open and close mouth.
What if my baby doesn’t cooperate? You may be asked to return
on a different day. Only one additional attempt will be made and this will
be decided at the discretion of the sonographer.
How many 4-D sessions can I have? Only one viewing session should
be scheduled.
Do I need an appointment? It is necessary to schedule an appointment. The recommended gestation age is 26 to 28 weeks. Please arrive on time to ensure adequate viewing time.
