Elective 3D/4D Ultrasound are non-diagnostic ultrasound experiences designed for bonding, keepsake imaging, and creating memorable moments during pregnancy. These sessions allow families to see baby movements, facial features, and hear the heartbeat in a relaxed and welcoming environment.

Yes. Ultrasound imaging uses sound waves and does not involve radiation. Elective ultrasounds at Luma Imaging Center are performed responsibly and professionally using high-quality ultrasound technology.

No. Elective ultrasounds are not intended to replace prenatal care or diagnostic imaging ordered by your healthcare provider. We strongly encourage all patients to continue routine prenatal care with their OB/GYN or midwife.

The ideal time for 3D/4D imaging is typically between 24–34 weeks of pregnancy. During this stage, babies often have more visible facial features and movements while still having adequate room for imaging.

Gender confirmation is typically available starting around 14 weeks, depending on baby positioning and imaging conditions.

Sometimes babies may be facing away or positioned in a way that limits imaging. Our sonographers will do their best to encourage repositioning during your session. In certain situations, a brief rescan may be offered at provider discretion.

Session lengths vary depending on the package selected:

• First Glimpse Package: 15–20 minutes

Elective OB ultrasounds are self-pay services and are not covered by insurance. We are not currently accepting insurance, but we have mindfully created our pricing to accommodate patients without insurance coverage while maintaining transparent pricing with no hidden fees.

No. Elective ultrasounds are non-diagnostic and do not provide medical evaluations, measurements, or reports. If there are ever concerns identified during your visit, we may recommend follow-up with your healthcare provider.

We recommend comfortable two-piece clothing that allows easy access to the abdomen for imaging.

For early pregnancy ultrasounds, a full bladder may improve imaging quality. Our team will provide preparation instructions prior to your appointment if needed.
