  • PRUDENT USE AND CLINICAL SAFETY OF DIAGNOSTIC ULTRASOUND 

    Approved March 19, 2007

    Diagnostic ultrasound has been in use since the late 1950’s .Given its known benefits and recognized efficacy for medical diagnosis, including human pregnancy, The American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine herein addresses the clinical safety of such use:

    No independently confirmed adverse effects caused by exposure from present diagnostic ultrasound instruments have been reported in human patients in the absence of contrast agents. Biological effects have been reported in mammalian systems at diagnostically relevant exposures, but the clinical significance of such effects is not yet known. Ultrasound should be used by qualified health professionals to provide medical benefit to the patient.

  • PRUDENT USE IN OBSTETRICS

    Approved March 19, 2007

    The American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine advocates the responsible use of diagnostic ultrasound and strongly discourages the non-medical use of ultrasound for entertainment purposes. The use of ultrasound without a medical indication to view the fetus, obtain a picture of the fetus or determine the fetal gender is inappropriate and contrary to responsible medical practice. Ultrasound should be used by qualified health care professionals to provide medical benefit to the patient.

  • INFORMED CONSENT FOR ULTRASOUND

    Your physician has requested that you undergo a diagnostic procedure known as an ultrasound. Simply stated, this procedure involves the transmission of sound waves reflected off your womb and your fetus, which will be monitored and recorded to obtain information concerning your pregnancy. This test is believed to carry with it very little risk to you or your fetus.

    The standard ultrasound takes approximately 10-30 minutes to perform and may provide information concerning placenta location, fetal position, multiple gestation, approximate gestational age, and the possible presence of gross fetal malformations. This test, however is not definitive for the absence of fetal malformations, and despite normal interpretation of the test, some babies are born with anomalies not identified by the examiner during the ultrasound study. Thus, although ultrasonography is a helpful diagnostic tool, it does not absolutely determine the absence of fetal defects. This type of exam is also done prior to performing genetic amniocentesis.

    Should you have any questions concerning ultrasonography, discuss them with your referring physician before undergoing the procedure. You are requested to sign this document prior to the performance of this exam, thereby acknowledgement that you have read and have understood the information contained herein, and have given an informed consent to this procedure, and are aware of the risks involved.
