Unbelievable Myth: Ultrasound Shatters Baby's Bones - Fact or Fiction?

[munky99999]

obviously it wasnt told as a myth to me. But has anyone heard this?

It's biology and physics mixed.

Basically I'll paraphrase to my version messing up points that probably are meant to happen.

There is a woman she becomes preggo. She's goes to get ultrasound when its time or whatever. she's like 7-8 months preggo or whatever. But the problem is. The ultrasound machine is malfunctioning. It actually is on the exact frequency/wavelength that is the resonance frequency to the baby's skeleton. The nurse or whatever activates the ultrasound machine and it almost instantely shatters all bones in the baby. The nurse figures there is something wrong with the machine and turns it off to get a technician to look at it. But the woman goes into labour and has a premature baby with no skeleton.

Is this even possible, am I wrong and this has happened; it's not a myth?

It's myth.

This is a complete myth and has been debunked by medical professionals. Ultrasound technology uses sound waves at a frequency that is not harmful to human tissue, including a developing baby's bones. In fact, ultrasound is routinely used during pregnancy to monitor the health and development of the baby.

There is no evidence to suggest that ultrasound can shatter bones, and it is highly unlikely that a malfunctioning machine could produce such a catastrophic effect. In rare cases, ultrasound may cause a temporary heating of tissues, but this is not harmful and does not cause any damage.

It is important to be cautious of misinformation and myths surrounding pregnancy and medical procedures. Ultrasound is a safe and effective tool for monitoring and caring for both the mother and baby during pregnancy. It is always best to consult with a medical professional if you have any concerns or questions.
