FAQs
Is Ultrasound safe?
Diagnostic Ultrasound has been used commonly on large populations from the 1960s. Safety has been the subject of ongoing scrutiny. The Australian Society for Ultrasound in Medicine Statement (ASUM) concludes: There is no convincing evidence that diagnostic ultrasound causes adverse health effects in human patients. ASUM however acknowledges that epidemiology data has several limitations. Ongoing research may reveal factors now not known. More research is always needed.
When will I know the sex of my baby?
The 20 week ultrasound is very accurate in determining the sex of the baby. It is correct 99% of the time. At the 11 - 14 week ultrasound, it is sometimes possible to sex the baby but not as accurately. In 10% of cases, it is not possible to sex the baby and where sexing is done, it is wrong 10% of the time.
What is Ultrasound?
Ultrasound is high frequency sound which is outside the range of human hearing. The examination is sometimes called a scan or a sonar. Sound waves are created by a small metal crystal within the ultrasound transducer. Soundwaves pass into the body and are reflected off internal organs. The ultrasound machine is able to analyse the returning echoes and convert them into pictures which are displayed on a television screen.
