3D/4D Ultrasound Scanning Service at CARE Manchester
Ultrasound is an extremely important part of any fertility assessment because it identifies any problems or irregularities which may affect conception, providing your Consultant with information to facilitate treatment planning and allowing the CARE team to achieve the best chance of a pregnancy for you.
3D/4D scanning technology is the most advanced technique in ultrasound. In pre-conception imaging, 3D ultrasound is particularly useful for identifying abnormalities in the uterus, it helps in the evaluation of the uterine cavity for the presence of endometrial polyps (benign growths of the lining of the uterus), uterine fibroids (benign tumours of the muscle of the uterus) or other conditions such as endometriosis.
3D scanning is also extremely valuable when diagnosing cornual pregnancies, it is more accurate in assessing the exact position of the gestation sac.
At CARE Manchester, we are now using 3D and 4D scanning as standard. This provides:
- more detailed scanning
- the most effective identification of issues which might affect fertility or the possible causes of recurrent pregnancy loss
- information which will assist with prediction of your response to the drugs used to stimulate your ovaries
- achievement of optimum treatment planning
