The only safe imaging during pregnancy is Ultrasound. Thanks!
You did not mention your health care problem or condition, nor that of your baby (pregnant). An ultrasound is safe.
Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are generally safe for pregnant people and their fetuses. These imaging techniques are non-ionizing, meaning they don't involve electromagnetic radiation. Your medical provider can give guidance on what imaging techniques are best for your situation.
