The purpose of ultrasound during pregnancy
Ultrasound examinations are necessary during pregnancy: they are used to assess the intrauterine development of the child and monitor the health of the expectant mother. Ultrasound scanning can be carried out even in the early stages, thanks to which the detection of pregnancy becomes possible already 4-5 days after the delay of menstruation.

The value of ultrasound technology lies in the fact that this method guarantees the most complete, comprehensive examination of the fetus carried by a woman. The accuracy of all data obtained during the use of ultrasound is incredibly high. Thanks to ultrasound, it is possible to accurately find out the term of pregnancy, the number of embryos, the presentation of the fetus, and find out the sex of the future child.

Ultrasound examination determines the amount of amniotic fluid, the condition of the walls and cervix of a pregnant woman. Ultrasonography is indispensable for revealing the features of the development and structure of the placenta and umbilical cord, determining the intensity of blood flow in the placenta and umbilical cord.

Management of pregnancy with the help of ultrasound is especially relevant in case of multiple pregnancy. Regular ultrasound examination allows you to monitor any unfavorable changes in the condition of the mother and children and immediately take appropriate medical measures.

The data obtained with the help of ultrasound waves enable the doctor to effectively detect any problems during pregnancy, carry out high-precision diagnostics of a wide range of fetal malformations and other pathological conditions.

Screening using ultrasound
Prenatal screening ultrasound examinations are carried out in accordance with international standards - in the I, II and III trimesters of pregnancy.

The first screening ultrasound at 11-13 weeks is of particular importance for further pregnancy management. It is during this period that markers of the most common birth defects and anomalies can be detected in the fetus. A qualitatively conducted study allows to evaluate about 20 different indicators, including specific markers of chromosomal abnormalities.

The second (at 20-24 weeks) and the third screening ultrasound (at 30-34 weeks) are performed in conjunction with the dopplerometry procedure. Doppler is a very important study that is designed to assess blood flow in the umbilical and uterine arteries, the middle cerebral artery and the fetal aorta. The blood flow of the ductus venosus and renal arteries of the fetus can also be examined at the doctor's direction.

Doppler has a high diagnostic value, as it can detect any blood circulation disorders. Conducting dopplerometry allows you to detect placental insufficiency, intrauterine hypoxia and take all necessary measures to eliminate these phenomena.

Ultrasound examinations are necessary during pregnancy: they are used to assess the intrauterine development of the child and monitor the health of the expectant mother. Ultrasound scanning can be carried out even in the early stages, thanks to which the detection of pregnancy becomes possible already 4-5 days after the delay of menstruation.

Planned screening examinations are carried out three times during the entire period of pregnancy, but more often they are found. The appointment of additional ultrasound examinations is based on medical indications as a result of the doctor's orders. If there is any danger to the health of the mother and child, during the entire pregnancy, ultrasound will be their protector and the most attentive assistant. Ultrasound scanning allows you to notice even the smallest unfavorable signs in the condition of the expectant mother or baby.

Ultrasound scanning does not have any negative effect on the course of pregnancy and the development of the fetus. Ultrasound during pregnancy is completely safe, so the number of examinations is determined depending on the course of pregnancy.
