Your phone as a virtual probe
ScanBaby’s Scan feature lets you interact with a virtual ultrasound exam. As you explore, the ultrasound views change, giving you an opportunity to discover how a baby and selected structures can look from different perspectives.
The ultrasound simulation uses real baby content provided in ScanBaby. Take the virtual probe into your own hands, linger on a view and discover the small details. You set the pace of this virtual ultrasound examination.
Move, discover, understand
Begin with a virtual ultrasound view and explore how the image changes. Take time to notice what looks familiar and what is still difficult to recognise. Then switch on labels to see the structures highlighted and named in the app.
You can explore without the time pressure of an appointment. The aim is not to learn to diagnose a scan, but to make the visual experience of ultrasound more accessible to expecting parents.
Real baby content, a virtual examination
The baby ultrasound content in ScanBaby comes from real babies. A virtual exam gives you room to explore those images yourself: move through different views, look closer and discover the structures with labels.
Looking for a baby ultrasound app or an ultrasound simulator? ScanBaby brings the fascination of sonography in pregnancy to your smartphone through an interactive virtual baby scan. It complements your curiosity and does not replace medical advice, examinations or prenatal care.
A part of your wider pregnancy journey
The virtual exam sits alongside week-by-week pregnancy information, three-dimensional development views and a collection of ultrasound moments. You can follow a question from one experience to another: read, look, explore and return to the details that interest you.
ScanBaby is available through the Apple App Store and Google Play. Download the app to discover the full virtual ultrasound experience, and bring questions about your own pregnancy to your care team.
