Can the 4D color Doppler ultrasound results be available immediately?

How long does it take for the four-dimensional color ultrasound results to be available? Four-dimensional color ultrasound, like other B-ultrasounds, can get results immediately. The best time to do a four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound is around 20-28 weeks of pregnancy. At this time, you can use the four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound to check whether the fetal body and internal organs are fully developed. In the late pregnancy, you can also see the baby's appearance in advance!

How long does it take for the 4D color Doppler ultrasound results to be available?

The best time to do four-dimensional color ultrasound varies from person to person, and the results obtained will be different if the requirements for doing four-dimensional color ultrasound are different.

Generally speaking, pregnancy can be divided into three stages: early pregnancy (January-March), mid-pregnancy (April-June), and late pregnancy (July-September). The actual effects of the four-dimensional color ultrasound taken in these three stages are also different.

The best time to do four-dimensional color ultrasound is 5-7 months (20-28 weeks) of pregnancy, because the fetus's body and important internal organs have all grown and developed during this period, and the amniotic fluid of pregnant women is more suitable for fetal malformation screening. However, due to individual differences among pregnant women, please contact your doctor for the specific time and set the time according to the doctor's instructions.

1. To take a full-body picture of the fetus: You can choose to do a four-dimensional color ultrasound in the early stages of pregnancy. At this time, the fetus is still small, and the baby's whole body can be photographed through the instrument. The most important thing to remind you is that it is not recommended to do a four-dimensional color ultrasound in January and February. There are objections to doing the four-dimensional during this pregnancy.

2. To check for external defects of the fetus: You can choose to do a four-dimensional color ultrasound in the middle or late stages of pregnancy. At this time, the baby's body has developed to a certain extent, and it is impossible to take a whole-body photo of the baby, but you can observe the shape of a certain part of the baby.

The results of the four-dimensional color ultrasound can usually be obtained in about 10 minutes. If the doctor finds any problems during the process, he will inform the parents on the spot.

What are the preparations before the 4D color Doppler ultrasound examination?

Obstetric four-dimensional color ultrasound examination:

1. Four-dimensional color ultrasound can be performed at any week of pregnancy, but it should be noted that there are currently objections to doing four-dimensional color ultrasound during early pregnancy (before 12 weeks of pregnancy). For safety reasons, it is recommended to do fetal four-dimensional color ultrasound after 20 weeks of pregnancy.

2. After the 20th week of pregnancy, the fetus's body and major internal organs have already fully developed. However, during the 22nd to 26th week of pregnancy, because the fetal organs are more fully developed and the amniotic fluid flow is more, it is suitable for fetal malformation screening.
