3D and 4D ultrasonography – review of doubts and controversies
نویسندگان
چکیده
A constant progress in sonographic techniques and rapid evolution of 3D/4D techniques gave us a lot of advantages but made us also to ask and answer many important questions. We review and discuss such important topics like: marketing pressure, safety and law regulations, validity of 3D/4D US diagnostic and its impact on clinical route, 3D/4D and prenatal bonding/maternal anxiety, learning process, limitations of techniques and potential pitfalls of 3D/4D, imaging artifacts of medical instruments in 4D ultrasound-guided interventions. We point out the possible disadvantages and limitations of the method which become of a more and more clinical importance.
