Obstetrical Sonography is the use of sound waves emitted from a transducer placed on the abdomen to look at the the fetus. With these images, our sonographers can look at the organs to help determine the health of the fetus. A full bladder is required when the patient is under 14 weeks. The full bladder changes the position of the fetus and creates a more direct route for the soundwaves to pass and get a clearer picture
Your babies health is important to us. Here at Perinatal Associates we use state of the art ultrasound equipment to help up diagnose any irregularities during pregnancy so we can help you make informed decisions about the health of your baby.
Our Sonographers have a combined total of more than 100 years of experience. That is a lot of knowledge at our figertips!
Premium Performance Ultrasound

2D/3D Imaging
All of our systems allow for 2D and 3D imaging to provide a more complete picture. As a benefit to our patients, a CD is provided during your first ultrasound to store a copy for you to take home! Just remember to bring in your CD to future appointments so we can continue to provide you with pictures of your babies progress.
