Comprehensive OB-GYN Imaging Under One Roof
Beyond pregnancy scans, we offer a full range of female reproductive ultrasound services — from pelvic ultrasound to ovarian health assessments — so you can manage your reproductive health in one trusted place.
What to Expect During Your OB-GYN Ultrasound Appointment
We believe that knowing what lies ahead helps you feel more relaxed. Here is a step-by-step look at a typical pregnancy ultrasound visit at our Rancho Cordova center.
- Check-in and preparation. When you arrive, our front-desk team will greet you and confirm your paperwork. Depending on the type of scan, you may be asked to drink water beforehand to ensure a full bladder — we will remind you of any preparation steps when you book.
- Private scan room. You will be escorted to a private, dimly lit room. You will lie comfortably on an exam table, and a warm gel will be applied to your abdomen (or a transvaginal probe may be used in early pregnancy for the clearest images).
- The scan. Your sonographer will glide the transducer across your belly, capturing real-time images of your baby. You will see your little one on the screen — and we encourage you to ask questions. We will measure key parameters such as crown-rump length, head circumference, femur length, and amniotic fluid levels.
- Review and next steps. After the scan, your images will be reviewed by a board-certified radiologist. A detailed report is sent directly to your OB-GYN or midwife, usually within 24 hours. We also provide you with printed keepsake images to take home.
Good to know: Most pregnancy ultrasounds are painless and take 30 to 45 minutes. We welcome a support person to join you in the scan room — because some moments are better shared.
Who Should Get a Pregnancy or OB-GYN Ultrasound?
Pregnancy ultrasound is a standard part of prenatal care, but there are many reasons you might need or want a scan at various stages. Our services are appropriate for:
- Early pregnancy confirmation — to verify the gestational sac, detect fetal cardiac activity, and establish an accurate due date (typically 6–10 weeks).
- First-trimester screening — including nuchal translucency (NT) assessment as part of combined genetic screening.
- Anatomy scan (mid-pregnancy) — a detailed survey of fetal anatomy, usually performed between 18 and 22 weeks, to assess growth and development.
- Third-trimester growth scans — to monitor fetal weight, amniotic fluid, and placental position, especially in high-risk pregnancies.
- Pelvic or gynecologic concerns — if you are experiencing pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, or have a history of ovarian cysts or fibroids, our OB-GYN ultrasound services can help your provider evaluate the situation.
- Multiple gestations — twins and triplets require closer monitoring, and our sonographers are experienced in managing complex multifetal scans.
If you are unsure whether an ultrasound is right for you, talk to your healthcare provider. They can order the appropriate study, and our team will take care of the rest.
About Rancho Cordova: A Community Built for Families
Rancho Cordova has come a long way from its roots as a Gold Rush-era railroad stop and later a strategic Air Force base. Today, it is one of the fastest-growing cities in the Sacramento region, with a population that has swelled to over 80,000 residents. The median age here is 36, and nearly 70% of households are families — making it a natural home for a pregnancy imaging center that puts parents and babies first.
The city’s economy is undergoing a remarkable transformation. Once defined by Mather Air Force Base and Aerojet’s rocket manufacturing, Rancho Cordova is now attracting tech startups, AI and robotics firms, and a wave of young professionals who appreciate the blend of suburban space and urban access. The Human Machine Collaboration Institute and the planned DOVA entertainment district signal a community that is investing in its future — and in the families who live here.
Outdoor life is woven into the fabric of Rancho Cordova. The American River Parkway and the Jedediah Smith Memorial Trail offer miles of walking, biking, and stroller-friendly paths. Lake Natoma and the Sacramento State Aquatic Center provide paddleboarding and rowing for active parents-to-be. And the Barrel District — a collection of craft breweries and distilleries — gives the city a distinct local flavor (with plenty of non-alcoholic options for our expecting visitors).
Whether you live near Mather Field, off Sunrise Boulevard, or in the newer developments around Kilgore Road, UltraVision Imaging is your neighborhood partner for pregnancy and OB-GYN ultrasound care.
How to Prepare for Your Ultrasound Appointment
Preparation is simple, but a few small steps can make a big difference in image quality and your overall experience.
- Check your order. Make sure your healthcare provider has sent us a referral or order for the specific type of ultrasound you need. If you are unsure, give us a call and we can help verify.
- Hydrate (if instructed). For most first- and second-trimester abdominal scans, a full bladder helps lift the uterus into a better imaging position. You may be asked to drink 24 to 32 ounces of water about an hour before your appointment and avoid emptying your bladder until after the scan.
- Dress comfortably. Wear loose, two-piece clothing so you can easily expose your abdomen. You will not need to undress fully.
- Bring your insurance card and ID. We accept most major insurance plans. Our team can verify your benefits ahead of time so there are no surprises.
- Arrive a few minutes early. This gives you time to fill out any remaining paperwork and settle in before your scan begins.
- Bring a support person. We welcome one guest to join you in the scan room. Many parents find it comforting to share the experience with a partner, family member, or friend.
Frequently Asked Questions About Pregnancy Ultrasound in Rancho Cordova
Most low-risk pregnancies include at least two standard ultrasounds: one in the first trimester for dating and viability, and one anatomy scan around 18–22 weeks. Your provider may recommend additional scans if you have a high-risk condition, are carrying multiples, or if any concerns arise along the way.
Yes. Diagnostic ultrasound uses sound waves — not radiation — to create images. It has been used safely in obstetrics for decades and is considered the gold standard for prenatal imaging when performed by trained professionals. Our sonographers follow strict ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) guidelines to keep scan times and exposure minimal.
If you are past about 16–18 weeks and your baby is in a cooperative position, we can often determine the sex. Please let your sonographer know at the start of the appointment whether you would like to know or prefer to keep it a surprise — we will respect your wishes either way.
In most cases, yes — a physician’s order is required for diagnostic obstetric ultrasound. If you do not yet have a provider, we can help connect you with local OB-GYN practices in the Rancho Cordova and Sacramento area that work closely with our imaging center.
A pregnancy ultrasound focuses on the developing fetus, placenta, and amniotic fluid. A gynecologic or pelvic ultrasound examines the uterus, ovaries, cervix, and surrounding structures — it is often used to evaluate pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, or fibroids. We offer both, so you can access comprehensive female reproductive imaging in one location.
Our radiologist reviews every study and issues a formal report within 24 hours. In urgent situations, we can expedite the process. Your provider’s office will receive the report electronically, and they will discuss the findings with you at your next prenatal visit or sooner if needed.
We primarily perform diagnostic 2D ultrasound, which is the medical standard for assessing fetal health. In some cases, 3D/4D imaging may be used to better evaluate certain anatomical structures. If you are interested in elective keepsake imaging, we can discuss options during your visit.
