What is a 3D ultrasound scan? The three-dimensional ultrasound scan represents the latest advance in ultrasonography. It consists of the visualization in three dimensions of the images obtained from the ultrasound scan. This new technique allows us to see the fetus moving around just as if we were inside the mother’s uterus, and thus obtain accurate images of the fetus. We can clearly discern the entire silhouette of the baby and all of its contours, watch its movements, gestures ... We recommend having this test done between week 26 and 30 of pregnancy. The cost of procedure is 165€ and includes a 15-minute DVD recording of the fetus. 3D ultrasound scans are performed in the Creu Blanca Tarradellas Center, Av. Josep Tarradellas 104-106, 08029 Barcelona.
