Value of Ultrasound- Picture Worth 1,000 Words


 

New Ultrasound Technology offers pictures of stunning clarity

SmilingbabyultrasoundOver at “Peggy Noonan Interrupts Blackout as Networks Continue to Ignore Abortionist’s Trial,” Matthew Balan tells us about the usual pro-abortion rigmarole heard on last Sunday’s “Meet the Press” which turned at the end when even guest host Chuck Todd conceded that “technology…had moved the country right.” By “technology,” Todd means, of course, primarily ultrasound and by “right” he means in a pro-life direction.
That exchange instantly came to mind when I read “Hello baby! Incredible 3D scans allow parents to see foetus SMILING and MOVING in stunning detail.”

The Daily Mail is talking primarily about the work of Dr. Bernard Benoit whose software is adding extraordinary detail to 3-Dimensional ultrasounds. Specifically, this software “takes a conventional 3D ultrasound scan and adds color, skin texture, lighting and shadows.”
Twins3DUltrasoundWhen we saw ultrasounds of our (now adult) children, they were 2-Dimensional, in black and white, and you could barely make out the torso, much less any detail. As you can see from the attached photos, nowadays the baby’s face is seen with remarkable clarity.
A 4-Dimensional version means you can see the baby move/smile/kick in real time. It’s like seeing a movie.
You can see a number of wonderfully precise images here.  The one of twins is positively stunning.
