Is 3D ultrasound safe for the foetus?

By Marta Barranquero Gómez B.Sc., M.Sc. (embryologist).
Last Update: 03/02/2023

Yes, 3D ultrasound is not a dangerous imaging test for the foetus, it is completely safe. Moreover, this test does not pose any danger to the mother's health either.

This is because 3D ultrasound does not emit radiation, but its methodology is based on the application of ultrasound.
