After Casey: 3D & 4D Ultrasound Requirement?


Following the Court's adoption of the "undue burden" test in Casey, would an informed consent law requiring that a woman have a 3D ultrasound before having an abortion impose an "undue burden" on the right to choose?

Technological advances in ultrasound are amazing. Here is a link that shows how this works. By the way, this site is not a "pro-life" advocacy site. It is a commercial site offering ultrasound service to expecting mothers.

Here is another link to some first trimester 3D images.

And here is an interesting article by Star Parker--Abortion and the politics of ultrasound--that discusses this issue.
