The world's best ultrasound technology helps detect abnormalities in the fetus

Above is a video published by a group of international researchers. They are proud that these are the most detailed ultrasound images in the world today.

New technology will help parents monitor every movement of the mother's womb and especially, it does not affect the fetus at all.

Below is a video published by an international team of researchers. They are proud that these are the most detailed ultrasound images in the world today.

In this video, the image of the fetus playing with the umbilical cord, turning its head from side to side, stretching . is quite evident. At the end of the second, the baby even had a strong kick on his mother's legs that made his belly distort.

The picture of the baby playing with the umbilical cord is clearly captured.

This new ultrasound technology is developed by researchers and clinicians under the iFIND project . This project was awarded the £ 10 million Innovative Engineering for Health award (about VND 300 billion) sponsored by the Wellcome Trust and the Scientific and Technical Research Council (EPSRC).

The purpose of this study is "to allow screening of fetal malformations in an automatic and homogeneous way".

According to Dr. David Lloyd, one of iFIND participants, only about 50% of congenital abnormalities are detected through conventional ultrasound.

Baby contributes to the mother's distortion.

Researchers involved in the project hope to change this number by developing ultrasonic technology that is controlled by computers. This new technology uses ultrasound technology, MRI imaging, robot control and computers to create "multi-probe systems for automatic ultrasound imaging".

The video above is made possible by computer algorithms that record images of every little movement of the baby during the ultrasound process. Usually, if the ultrasound, the baby moves too much and fast, the image will not be used. With the new "multi-probe" ultrasound, complications will be more easily detected.

Clear images will help detect birth defects.

Sharing more about this new ultrasound technology, Dr. David Lloyd said: " A 20-week fetal ultrasound is not an easy task because the baby is very young. For example, the fetal heart, including The compartments and valves are only about 15mm long, less than 1 coin, and conventional ultrasound can hardly detect problems in such small parts.

More importantly, the new ultrasound technology we are working with is completely safe to use during pregnancy. "

New ultrasound technology is completely safe for the fetus.

ChannelMum.com editorial editor said: 'Ultrasound technology is really great because it helps fathers, mothers and even other family members form bonds with the child. Nothing is more emotional than seeing your unborn child moving inside your body, and this new technology has taken the ultrasound up a new step. They're really awesome. '
