3D&4D operation guideline
1. How to Get a Good 3D/4D Image
Conception and classification
Static 3D
Use volume probe
Automatic scanning by probe
Single frame image
4D / Real-time 3D
Use volume probe
Automatic scanning by probe
Dynamic video
This guideline only refers to Static 3D and 4D
2. Factors affecting image quality
Fetal condition
Gestational age : fetuses of 22~26 weeks old are the most
appropriate for 3D/4D imaging
Fetal body postureRecommended : cephalic face up (figure
A) or face aside (figure B) ; not recommended: cephalic face
down (figure C)

A B C
3. Factors affecting image quality
Fetal condition
Amniotic fluid isolatio : the region desired should be isolated
by amniotic fluid adequately
How to Get a Good 3D/4D Image
Inadequate Amniotic Fluid around Fetal Face
4. Factors affecting image quality
Fetal condition
Covering condition : the region desired should not be covered
by placenta , limbs or umbilical cord
How to Get a Good 3D/4D Image
Fetal Face Covered by Hands
5. Factors affecting image quality
2D image quality
Scanning planes : the ideal scanning planes are sagittal
plane , oblique coronal plane and coronal plane , which
correspond to the front , oblique lateral and lateral fetal face
How to Get a Good 3D/4D Image
Sagittal in 2D
Front in 3D/4D
Oblique Coronal in 2D
Oblique Lateral in 3D/4D
Coronal in 2D
Lateral in 3D/4D
6. Factors affecting image quality
2D image quality
Parameters : before entering 3D/4D capture , optimize 2D
image to assure :
High contrast between the desired region and the amniotic
fluid surrounded : Dynamic Range , Gray Map
Clear boundary of the desired region : Focus Position ,
TSI , Gain
Low noise of the amniotic fluid area : iClear , Noise
Reject , Focus Position
Proper size and position of ROI : set ROI in the largest
section area of the fetal face , and a little larger in size
than fetal head

7. How to Get a Good 3D/4D Image
ROI doesn’t Contain the
Largest Section
ROI Contains the Largest
Section
Too Shallow ROI
Too Deep ROI
Too Big ROI
Too Small ROI
8. How to Get a Good 3D/4D Image
ROI in Proper Position , Depth and Size
9. Parameter adjusting in 3D/4D
Rendering mode
Surface : for the imaging of surface of fetus , such as
face , arms , hands , legs , feet , etc.
Max : for the imaging of bones
Min : for the imaging of hollow structures , such blood
vessels , etc.
X Ray : for the imaging of tumors or tissues with different
structure inside

11. Parameter adjusting in 3D/4D
VOI
Adjusting the VOI box size and position is to select the volume
data needed to render the 3D/4D image and improve rendering
effect
How to Get a Good 3D/4D Image
Too Big VOI Too Small VOI Proper VOI
12. Parameter adjusting in 3D/4D
Angle
Set the angle that the probe covers during a fan scanning
Wide angle will decrease the frame rate
How to Get a Good 3D/4D Image
Too Narrow Angle Proper Angle
13. Parameter adjusting in 3D/4D
Threshold
3D/4D image is rendered using the signal above threshold
Signals below threshold (such as the noise) will be filtered
Only used in Surface rendering mode
How to Get a Good 3D/4D Image
Too Low Threshold Proper Threshold
14. Parameter adjusting in 3D/4D
Other parameters
Smoothness : to set the smoothness of 3D/4D image.
Insufficient smoothness can result in a fuzzy image ; over
smoothness will lead to image distortion
Transparency : to set the transparency value for 3D/4D
image rendering. The higher the number , the more
transparent the gray scale information. Only used in Surface
rendering mode
Brightness : to set the brightness of 3D/4D image
Contrast : to set the contrast of 3D/4D image
How to Get a Good 3D/4D Image
15. Notice
A good 3D/4D image not only depends on the performance of
ultrasound system , but also closely relates to fetal
condition and doctor’s skills
