Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ultrasound is a diagnostic imaging technique used to visualize internal organs and structures, including a fetus during pregnancy. It can detect morphological abnormalities such as cleft lip, but it cannot directly reveal genetic conditions or specific chromosomal arrangements like translocations, karyotype, cystic fibrosis, or phenylketonuria (PKU), which require genetic testing or other specific diagnostic methods.
