Remember these blows to the breath in your stomach? When it seems that there is a future football player growing up. I remember very well: then heel to the liver, then elbow under the ribs. And I still remember, I was amazed: how does it fit there, and to rotate again. Part of the answers to my questions gave an ultrasound. But only in part. The full picture of what was happening in the belly did not reflect it. And neither for me as a "spectator", nor for doctors as "experts." Do you understand what I mean? After all, the future mothers at least three times for pregnancy do ultrasound not in order that they just admire the pusher. Thus, doctors try to identify congenital anomalies of the fetus in time. But a standard study may miss up to half the problems. This is very much.
Picture of the standard UZIPOTO: GettyImages- Usually the baby moves too fast, and standard equipment does not keep track of him, "explains David Lloyd, clinical researcher at King's College in London. - Therefore, shooting a 20-week-old fetus in the womb is not so easy. The image turns out to be grainy, not very clear. Besides, at 20 weeks the baby no longer fits into the whole frame. We have to consider it gradually: the head, pens, legs in turn. This is also a minus. David and his colleagues are authors of ultramodern prenatal screening. They are working on a project iFIND, which combines computer technology, ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging. Such a study allows you to get the most clear and clear picture. The first results are already there. And they are just amazing. One of these days in the network there was a video. Only 24 seconds from the life of a 20-week-old man. Forgive, call it the fruit, the embryo simply does not turn the tongue. The kid twists his head, touches the umbilical cord, straightens his legs. In a word, he behaves like a real izza.
The picture that the miracle scanner gives Photo:frame from video— Unlike a standard ultrasound, this allows you to see the entire uterus, says David Lloyd. — Using algorithms of magnetic fields and radio waves, the new scan creates very high-quality footage of the baby in motion. Scientists hope that their development will help to identify developmental abnormalities as early and accurately as possible. After all, many of them can be treated before birth. Well, and the new scanner will allow moms and dads to get to know the baby long before it is born. Isn't it wonderful?
