Abstract

The ability to image the fetus and its associated structures has revolutionized the clinical management of pregnancy. The obstetric ultrasound scanner had its major origins in a programme of research undertaken in Glasgow in the 1950s and 1960s, under the leadership of the obstetrician, Professor Ian Donald. Donald’s work was characterised by a remarkable series of collaborations between engineers and clinicians, many of whom came together to take part in this Witness Seminar to consider the early history of ultrasound imaging, its technical development and clinical applications.
