“…Of course, many diagnoses can be made using 2D US. However, areas of interest can only be visualised on individual image planes [190]. In contrast to 2D US, 3D US provides several imaging modes that are used in prenatal diagnosis and in gynaecology, depending on the particular issue: multiplanar mode, tomographic mode, surface mode, transparent mode, HDlive mode and some more.…”

Diagnostic ultrasound in obstetrics and gynaecology has experienced a fantastic evolution during the past seven decades. Initial steps with A-mode technology were followed by B-mode and B-mode real-time imaging, then by Doppler and colour Doppler ultrasound, and finally by 3D/4D ultrasound. Other evolutionary steps were the development of high-resolution transabdominal and transvaginal transducers providing high quality images in the first, second and third trimesters of pregancy, as well as in gynaecology and breast imaging.The progression from two-dimensional (2D) to three-dimensional ultrasound (3D) and 3D real-time imaging (4D) has brought new options in displaying anatomical structures. In comparison with CT or MRI, it is not a static but functional technique, cheap and safe, and applicable at any time.

“…In obstetrics, in addition, a most important factor of quality is a good quantity of amniotic fluid surrounding the fetus. The use of 3D ultrasound in obstetrics quickly expanded from the original description [34] to multiple indications [35] and sophisticated rendering with standardization of terms [36] and instructions on how to obtain diagnostic scans, for instance the fetal skull and face [37]. Visualization of motion in real-time is possible in 3D ultrasound and has been labelled real-time 3D, live 3D, or 4D [38].…”

Ultrasonography. 2020 Aug 25. Epub ahead of print Diagnostic ultrasound (DUS) is, arguably, the most common technique used in obstetrical practice. From A mode, first described by Ian Donald for gynecology in the late 1950s, to B mode in the 1970s, real-time and gray-scale in the early 1980s, Doppler a little later, sophisticated color Doppler in the 1990s and three dimensional/four-dimensional ultrasound in the 2000s, DUS has not ceased to be closely associated with the practice of obstetrics. The latest innovation is the use of artificial intelligence which will, undoubtedly, take an increasing role in all aspects of our lives, including medicine and, specifically, obstetric ultrasound. In addition, in the future, new visualization methods may be developed, training methods expanded, and workflow and ergonomics improved.

“…Thirty years ago, the first steps in the journey of 3D ultrasound were taken, with offline reconstruction of a fetal face following acquisition of adjacent slices of the regions of interest with a special mechanical transducer 17 . Another approach was proposed soon after, in the mid 90s, with a sensor attached to a regular transducer and the data being analyzed by remote computer after free‐hand acquisition.…”
