Are Dynamic Dopplers safe to use?
The FDA regulates Ultrasound Doppler’s, and has regulated them to be safe for continual use. The Mayo Clinic states, “In 30 years of regular use, no adverse effects have ever been demonstrated from ultrasound testing. Research has been done investigating both the noise produced in utero and the heat produced by ultrasound, and no problems have ever been detected from its use in exposed babies. There is no reason to feel uncomfortable about the use of ultrasound during pregnancy and there are great benefits to using it. To further insure the safety and integrity of Ultrasound Doppler’s the FDA requires your caregivers approval prior to in-home use.
