How soon is the best time to do a 4D

4D usually refers to four-dimensional ultrasound during pregnancy, and it is usually better to choose to have the test around 24 to 28 weeks of pregnancy.

Pregnant women should understand the importance of 4D ultrasound screening and go to the hospital for 4D ultrasound according to the time prescribed by the doctor. 4D ultrasound can be performed at 24~28 weeks of pregnancy because at this time, the fetal structure has been constituted, and the size of the fetus and amniotic fluid are moderate, the image is clearer, which is conducive to diagnosis.
