Scans What is an ultrasound scan? An ultrasound is a scan that uses high frequency sound waves to create pictures of the inside of the womb There are currently 3 different types of pregnancy scans available:
2D ultrasound is the traditional method used for years and used by the NHS today. These are the scans that you will have as part of your pregnancy care on the NHS. They provide a flatter, two-dimensional, black and white image of your baby and within the NHS are used to identify growth and detect any anomalies. You will receive a 2D scan at Nu-Gen if you request a gender scan and this can be performed at 16 weeks. If you have booked in for a gender scan and we can't see then we will re-book you in for a re-scan free of charge.
4D HD ultrasound is an advanced method which captures a true, three-dimensional image of your baby, at Nu-Gen we have the latest GE Voluson ultrasound machine which enables you to see your baby in a true human flesh colour rather than a yellow colour which can sometimes be the case with 4D scans. A 4D scan will often allow you the ability to see specific facial features and well-defined formation. You will be able to see your baby's facial features for the first time, which is always a magical experience. 3D is a static 4D image like a picture.
4D ultrasound is an actual moving three-dimensional image of your baby in the womb. The most miraculous part of your experience is seeing your baby move inside the womb. Actions such as yawning, turning and even subtle movements can be seen. You will see your baby moving in real time in full 4D5D HD imagery.
So in short... A 2D scan is a black and white flat image of your baby A 3D scan is a static 3 dimensional image of your baby, enabling you to see your baby's face you may also see him/her smile, yawn and maybe even sucking it's thumb. A 4D scan adds the dimension of time, allowing you to see your baby�s movements in the womb in real time. A 5D scan is an even more realistic view in real time of your baby Scans we offer at Nu-Gen are:
