The multiplanar mode is used to navigate through the volume, observing information on a specific structure in all three orthogonal planes. Other display options, mainly the tomographic mode, are used to display the anomaly. The varieties of display modes and the infinite number of different planes that can be generated facilitate the diagnostic process. These imaging capabilities are extremely important during the first trimester of the pregnancy when manipulations with the vaginal probe are restricted and obtainable ultrasound sections are limited Additional values of this technology include an off-line analysis of the volume by the sonologist to obtain the necessary planes, as well as an electronic transmittal for an off-site expert to provide a second opinion consultation.
