When it comes to diagnosing and monitoring unborn babies, Sonogram vs Ultrasound

the two most commonly used tools. but there is some difference between the two

A sonogram, also called an ultrasound scan, is a painless test that uses high-frequency sound waves to create an image of your baby in your uterus.

The image is displayed on a monitor so that your doctor can check your baby’s development and find any potential problems.

On the other hand, an ultrasound is a diagnostic tool that uses sound waves to create images

internal organs or blood flow. It can be used to look for problems with the heart, lungs, or blood

vessels. Ultrasound is also used to guide procedures such as biopsy or needle aspiration.

Therefore, while both tests use sound waves to create images, a sonogram is specifically used to image
