Scans for pregnancy and ultrasound imaging
Ultrasound Digital offers a comprehensive range of 3D and 4D ultrasound scan packages to provide parents with a closer look of their unborn baby. Professional sonographers typically conduct these scans to ensure a safe and accurate assessment.
3D and 4D birth scans use high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images of the unborn child during pregnancy.
3D scans: These provide lifelike still images of the baby, allowing parents to see the surface and contours of the fetus in three dimensions.
4D scans: In addition to the three-dimensional aspects, 4D scans capture real-time movements of the baby in the womb. This provides a dynamic view, almost like a live video, showing the unborn baby’s activities.
Both types of scans are safe and comparable in intensity to 2D ultrasound scans. They offer parents a unique opportunity to visually connect with their unborn child, providing insights into fetal growth and development.
If you have any specific questions or if there is anything else you would like to know please ask.
Why would someone use a 4D scan?
Determining the unborn baby’s gestational age, comparing their growth to predicted values, assessing their weight, and revealing the unborn baby’s gender and position are part of the 3D/4D scans. Any unexpected findings will be explained, allowing you to consult with your doctor or midwife before the baby is born.

What occurs if my baby refuses to pose for the 3D or 4D scan?
Achieving proper positioning is crucial, especially in a 4D scan. Encouraging the baby to move to different angles may take up to thirty minutes for optimal 4D scans. Challenges may arise if the placenta is at the front of the womb, impacting the appearance of the unborn baby’s face on the scan. Our staff will make every effort to obtain the best scan, suggesting breaks or rescheduling if needed.

In Case You Still Have Questions
Do I need a GP/health care provider referral?
What is the referral process like?
We recommend that every one of our clients let their doctor or other healthcare provider know that they plan to get scanned by us. When you first arrive to Ultrasound Digital, you will be asked to fill out a registration form with information about your physician or healthcare provider.
Can I eat and drink before my scan?
Is it necessary to do an internal scan every time?
What do I need to wear for the scan?
What do I need to bring anything to my ultrasound scan?
Please bring along your hospital notes (if you have been given them) and reports to assist out Sonographers if a referral is required.
Will you advise me of any abnormalities?
Note that none of your NHS scans are replaced by our scans. Should a medical referral be necessary during your visit, we will address this with you and give you a comprehensive report to give to your physician.
Do I still need to visit the NHS if I had a scan with you?
Yes, our services are a complementary service, which works alongside the NHS.
Can I make a claim for my scans using my medical insurance?
After you pay Ultrasound Digital directly for your scan, we will send you an invoice. This is a private matter between you and your insurance provider, but it can be utilized to file a claim. Please verify this before your scan to avoid disappointment.
How many guests/children can come with me?
We can accommodate up to 3 individuals with the patient, and we are pleased for family and friends to attend. Kids are also welcome.
