What does the FDA have to say about elective ultrasound photography sessions?
The FDA has issued warnings about the use of ultrasound for non medical purposes. The National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement recently issued a paper that states that after 50 years of constant use of ultrasound technology, NO adverse health impacts have been found. There is no radiation. The FDA concern of “prolonged exposure” is addressed by Womb with a View™, by following all FDA guidelines and recommendations for length of scan and sound wave strength. By staying within the guidelines, body temperature/amniotic temperature is raised no more than if the Mommy were to take a walk around the block, or if she were outside in hot weather.
