Ultrasounds

Ultrasounds in Denver

Once your pregnancy is confirmed, obstetricians and gynecologists will help keep you and your baby healthy throughout your pregnancy and delivery. We will recommend a variety of screening and imaging techniques during your pregnancy, one of them being getting regular ultrasounds.

Whether you're seeing your baby's picture for the first time or screening for potential problems during your pregnancy, our ultrasound specialists are here to help.

What is an ultrasound?

Ultrasound is a type of sonography that uses sound waves to create images. It can be extremely useful in helping your practitioner gain a good insight into how the baby is developing.

Ultrasounds work with a number of conditions, including:

Reproductive health disorders
Pregnancy
Misplaced IUD

What are ultrasounds used for?

Ultrasounds are helpful in monitoring the progress of your baby. They can detect a number of diseases, including both mild and serious conditions. During the second trimester, they can even be used to determine the sex of your baby!

Benefits of Ultrasounds

There are many benefits of using ultrasound technology during your pregnancy, including:

  • Help prevent the onset of serious diseases/infections
  • Prepare ahead of time for genetic disorders
  • Treat diseases through safe prenatal medication
  • Prepare parents for their child’s future

When do I get an ultrasound during my pregnancy?

During your pregnancy, our providers will work with you to determine the needed frequency of an ultrasound. For most women, there are three ultrasounds conducted during each trimester.

If needed, they can be done more frequently. Usually, this happens when the patient or provider has a concern that needs to be investigated.

Are there other types of ultrasounds?
A gynecological ultrasound helps to detect any abnormalities in the female anatomy (uterus, cervix,
ovaries, ect.). They are commonly used to help diagnose conditions like polycystic ovarian syndrome,
endometriosis, or masses. They can be done vaginally or abdominally.
Am I required to screen for congenital disorders?
While testing isn’t required, testing can help prepare parents for their child ahead of time, especially
if they’re more prone to congenital disorders. Talk to your care provider
about the test results and what they mean for you and your family.
What’s the difference between screening and diagnostic testing?
Screening tests cannot determine whether or not the child has a congenital disorder, but more or
less observe any disorders, such as a heart condition. Diagnostic testing detects genetic history
through the woman’s genes and chromosomes and diagnoses the risk factors during the pregnancy.
What factors increase the risk of congenital disorders?
Most babies that are born with congenital disorders are born to parents without risk factors.
However, the risk factors, such as a history of congenital disorders, the mother’s age, diabetes, and
certain ethnic groups, can factor into the baby’s risk.
