I've never heard of this. Usually they do an initial ultrasound (depending on availability of equipment) at you first visit or two, then another around 20 weeks, and then another around 36 weeks. The first ultrasound is the most accurate in confirming due date. The second is a scan to make sure the baby has 10 fingers, 10 toes, etc, and is used in gender determination (if the parents want to know, and the baby cooperates). The third one is used to estimate weight/size, and check the postion of the baby (at this point, the baby should be in a head down postion, with it's back to the mother's stomach).
My at 37 week ultrasound, they did the 3-D one, and I could see everything - eyes, ears, nose, mouth, hair. It was just short of an actual picture. I'm not sure how a 3-D ultra could miss organs outside the body.
