Looking at Ultrasound Pictures of Pregnancy stages
The history of ultrasound is based in the sonar that was used by the world’s navies during World War 2. After the war, researchers began experimenting with sonar to see if it could be helpful in medical diagnosis. It was first used to detect cancers and other growths that needed medical attention. It wasn’t until the 1950s that the medical community recognized that sonar could be useful to take ultrasound pictures of stages of pregnancy.
