Fetal Medicine Viewing System

Watching their baby's ultrasound from a parent’s perspective is generally an emotional, reassuring and highly longed for experience that at once helps make the pregnancy feel real and the baby take on its personality-to-be.   The experience often strengthens the parent-baby bond.  

A small grant from the Charity has helped to provide a reliable and professional viewing system in 3 obstetric ultrasound rooms. Pregnancy ultrasounds can be viewed on a high-quality screen in the Fetal Medicine team office in live time as the scan is performed by the sonographer in the other room with the mother-to-be.  This allows the team to support and view scans in real time alongside education of clinical staff and students, without encroaching on the patient’s own experience.
