- ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are not associated with increased risk and are the imaging modalities of choice for pregnant women (ACOG Guidelines 2017)
- still, they should be used with caution (especially MRI) and only when their use is expected to answer a relevant clinical question or otherwise provide medical benefit to the patient
