A member asked:

I just received a 3d ultrasound how can i tell the baby has a clept lip ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ask your physician.: In 1 experimental series, all cases of clefting of the primary palate and 86% of cases involving the secondary palate were visualized using 3d ultrasound with a satisfactory false-positive rate. Virtual navigation of the fetal palate using the multiplanar mode display seems to be useful in the diagnosis of clefting in the first trimester. Bottom line: it should be visulaized if presents.
