Can the four-dimensional image check for neurological defects?

With the improvement of people's cultural level, pregnant mothers are actively doing prenatal check-ups to ensure the physical and mental health of the fetus. Since the new four-dimensional examination technology came into our sight, it has been favored by many pregnant mothers, because it is said that this technology can detect many diseases. So what are the advantages of four-dimensional examination? When should it be done? Can it detect nerve defects?

The four-dimensional examination is the most advanced B-ultrasound technology at present. Through this technology, the condition of the fetus in the belly can be clearly seen, such as body shape, appearance, posture, etc. The doctor can directly see whether the fetus has any abnormalities from all aspects and angles. The unique thing is that parents can also record the examination process for review. Secondly, the radiation intensity of four-dimensional examination is basically negligible and will not cause any adverse effects on pregnant women and fetuses.

There is no fixed golden time for four-dimensional color ultrasound. Different people have different times. In addition, at different stages of pregnancy, the growth and development of the fetus is different, so the results of the four-dimensional examination will be different, and the items that can be checked will also be different. Generally speaking, three examinations can be done in the morning, noon and evening during pregnancy, so that the fetus at each stage can be examined more comprehensively. However, there are still some disputes about whether pregnant women should undergo this test in the early stages. Some people also suggest that pregnant women do the test after 20 weeks of pregnancy. You can consult the relevant doctor for details.

Four-dimensional color ultrasound can check diseases in various areas, including the head, face, central nervous system, digestive tract, urogenital system and some deformities visible to the human eye, such as cleft lip and palate, syndactyly, oligodactyly, limb defects, etc. At the level of the central nervous system, it is actually possible to check whether the fetus suffers from hydrocephalus, anencephaly, spina bifida, etc., but neurological defects involve more delicate aspects and the results cannot be simply obtained through a four-dimensional examination.

Generally speaking, the four-dimensional examination is an economically simple and comprehensive test. Through this test, pregnant mothers can eliminate many concerns, at least some of the fetus's physical defects visible to the naked eye can be identified. If pregnant mothers meet the requirements, they can go to reliable large and medium-sized hospitals to acquire practical and relevant knowledge.
