Abstract
        Three Dimensional Ultrasound provides a very clear look on the fetal anatomy, makes anomalies easier to recognize, facilitates maternal-fetal bonding, and helps families better understand fetal abnormalities.

        Additionally in pathological cases the use of 3D US will also provide parents with the knowledge to have a better judgement while taking decision about continuing or terminating the ongoing  pregnancy.
