Obstetric Ultrasonography
Obstetrics is the health profession or medical specialty that deals with pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum period.
Obstetric ultrasonography is the application of medical ultrasonography to obstetrics, in which sonography is used to visualize the embryo or fetus in its mother's uterus (womb). The procedure is a standard part of prenatal care, as it yields a variety of information regarding the health of the mother and of the fetus, the progress of the pregnancy, and further information on the baby.
In those who are at low risk it is unclear if obstetric ultrasound before 24 weeks makes a significant difference in outcomes.
