What is an ultrasound?

Ultrasound is a technique that uses sound waves to project a picture of an embryo or fetus in the womb. Ultrasound works by sending and receiving sound waves off the developing fetus. Echoes from the waves are converted into an image, called a sonogram, as seen on a monitor. Ultrasound has been used for more than 30 years, and no risks have been identified. The ultrasound offered at First Resort will:
- Verify your due date
- Measure the size and age of the fetus
- Identify possible miscarriage
- Confirm more than one fetus
- Rule out the possibility of ectopic pregnancy
