Description
3D/4D/5D scan
A 3D/4D/5D scan is a special type of pregnancy ultrasound that provides high-definition, lifelike images and videos of your baby in the womb.
These scans are primarily for bonding and entertainment, though they can also offer basic health insights when performed by trained professionals.
What’s the Difference Between 2D, 3D, 4D & 5D Scans?
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| 2D Scan | Traditional black-and-white, flat image used in medical ultrasounds |
| 3D Scan | Static, colored, three-dimensional image showing baby’s facial features |
| 4D Scan | Real-time video of your baby’s movements (e.g. yawning, stretching) |
| 5D Scan | Enhanced version of 4D with better lighting, shading & clarity (HD Live) |
