MitchellToronto, [Ontario] ;Buffalo, [New York] ;London, [England] :University of Toronto Press,2001.©20011 online resource (269 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-8020-8349-8 0-8020-4810-2 Includes bibliographical references and index.Introducing ultrasound fetal imaging -- Opening the black box: the ontology of fetal ultrasound images -- The view from the field -- Being pregnant and coming to know the fetus -- 'Showing the baby': sonographers' accounts of fetal images -- 'Seeing the baby': women's perspectives on ultrasound -- Reconnections: women, ultrasound, and reproductive politics -- Re-vision: other ways of seeing."Appearing through developments in medicine, in volatile debates over abortion rights, in popular guides to pregnancy, and in advertisements for cars and long-distance telephone plans, the fetus has become an increasingly familiar part of our social landscape in Canada. Lisa Mitchell provides a critical anthropological perspective on the fetal subject, particularly as it emerges through the practice of ultrasound imaging." "Drawing upon fieldwork conducted over the past ten years, the author includes observations at ultrasound clinics, interviews with pregnant women and their partners, and a discussion on how ultrasound's echoes become meaningful as 'baby's first picture' - a snapshot of the fetus in utero."--JacketFetusUltrasonic imagingSocial aspectsFetusUltrasonic imagingQuébec (Province)MontréalCase studiesPregnant womenQuébec (Province)MontréalAttitudesMedical personnelQuébec (Province)MontréalAttitudesQuebecMontrealfastQuebecLivres numeriques.Case studies.e-books.Electronic books.
