Ultrasonography in Obstetrics

Ultrasonography in obstetrics is a medical imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of a developing fetus and the mother's reproductive organs. This non-invasive procedure allows healthcare providers to monitor the baby's growth, check for any abnormalities, assess the position of the placenta, and determine gestational age. It is commonly performed during pregnancy to ensure the health of both the mother and the baby, providing valuable information that guides prenatal care and delivery planning. Overall, it is a safe and effective tool used throughout pregnancy.
