I’m a totasl newbie to this group but I’ll jump right in. Today my other half and I had our 20 week scan done of our baby. I’m trying to find ways of improving the quality and possibly doing a fake ‘3D render’ of the face portion. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Pfew………..that is a good one Wayne and I think you are (partially) in the right group.

But how to do that…….I have seen good ultrasound pictures, I have seen pictures where it was impossible to see any body parts:)) But that may be me…..

I would start out by juggling with the contrast. These are black and white I assume? Try and isolate the upper part of the body including the face. I have heard there is some 3-D rendering in Photoshop CS, sorry I do not have that version, but not sure what it can do. I guess uplifting the image in PS and then using a real 3-D piece of software might be a solution.

But remember: what come in gets out, and an Ultrasound Scan is not the best input……good luck and I for one am curious:))

You may be able to do something with the image, but I doubt you can get a surface rendering from it.

There are good algorithms for rendering 3d surfaces from ultrasound data, indeed there are "vanity" shops here in the US that do non-medical ultrasounds for exactly this purpose, but they require access to the original sensor data, which is not present in the image. —

3d render is easy but it takes about another 16 – 20 weeks to complete. And if you’re not satisfied with the results at that point? What will you do; Photoshop a new face 🙂

You may be able to get a neat effect by adding a texture layer in the Render Lighting Effects Filter (bottom of The Rendering panel -adjusting "depth").

Peadge 🙂
