Kakaki Hospital Ultrasound Scan Services
Kakaki Hospital features 3D & 4D Ultrasound Technology
At Kakaki Hospital, we take pride in our many years of experience in providing a full-service prenatal imaging center. We look forward to creating a welcoming and comforting environment for expecting parents to see their newest member of the family.
Our expert technologists at Kakaki Hospital are trained to use state-of-the-art ultrasound technology to capture images and videos of the baby for you and your loved ones to save for a lifetime. Ultrasound technology has been used to provide a glimpse of the womb, and more importantly, used as a diagnostic test for fetal abnormalities. 2D Ultrasound scanning is a versatile, comfortable and safe diagnostic method in checking for problems and getting information about your baby.
Ultrasound services performed early in your pregnancy are used to determine:
- Presence of more than one fetus
- Estimation of your due date
- Check for birth defects that affect the brain or spinal cord
Later in pregnancy, ultrasound may be used to determine:
- Health of the baby
- The size and position of the fetus placenta and amniotic fluid
- Baby’s expected weight
Kakaki Hospital features 3D and 4D ultrasound imaging. They are used for non-diagnostic imaging to enhance prenatal bonding with your child. 3D and 4D ultrasounds work similar to 2D ultrasound. The differences are that the 3D ultrasound provides you with a full 3D image of your baby, while 4D ultrasound creates a live video effect of your baby, making it possible to see your baby smile or yawn!
The 3D/4D fetal imaging ultrasound does not replace diagnostic medical exams as ordered by your medical provider. Prior to scheduling your appointment, we require that you are currently receiving treatment with a health care provider for prenatal care. This is a voluntary non diagnostic exam, however, incidental fetal/uterine abnormalities may be noticed. In that case, your doctor will be notified. We cannot guarantee clear images or be liable for incorrect gender determinations. Images are dependent upon the baby’s position, amniotic fluid, placental location and other maternal factors. We do encourage expecting parents to discuss this optional procedure with your health care provider.
