What is a 3DH file

3DH files mostly belong to 4D View. 3DH files are designed to hold 3D ultrasound images. They store volumetric data captured by ultrasound systems and support 3D volume rendering.
Key details sourced by FilExt.com include:

  • 3D Ultrasound Data: These files contain 3D representations from ultrasound scans.
  • Clinical Use: They are used in medical diagnostics for detailed anatomical assessments.
  • Optimized Format: The structure is tailored for precise 3D imaging rather than standard 2D pictures.
  • Dedicated Software: Use tools like 4D View to open and analyze these files.

FilExt.com tip: Further details can be found on the GE Healthcare webpage.

How do you open 3DH files?

You need a suitable software like 4D View to open a 3DH file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your 3DH file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a 3DH file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

Programs that open and convert 3DH files:

  1. 4D View
    See the previous paragraphs to learn more about the main application. 3DH files are often referred to as 4D View 3d images because this type of file is primarily created or used by this software.
  2. GE Voluson
    The *.3DH file extension is primarily associated with 3D ultrasound images, especially those generated by GE Healthcare's Voluson ultrasound systems. These files encapsulate volumetric data, allowing for the reconstruction and manipulation of 3D representations of fetal anatomy and other scanned structures. The internal structure of *.3DH files is proprietary and optimized for handling complex 3D/4D ultrasound data. While the exact specifications aren't publicly documented, it's understood that they contain a combination of raw image data, metadata related to the acquisition parameters, and potentially other proprietary information used by the Voluson software for rendering and analysis. This format facilitates advanced visualization techniques, enabling healthcare professionals to assess fetal development, cardiac function, and other diagnostic aspects in a more comprehensive manner compared to traditional 2D ultrasound. This file format is classified as 3D image.

a 3dh three-dimensional ultrasound imaging file is a special file format and should only be edited and saved with the appropriate software.

How to solve problems with 3DH files

  • Associate the 3DH file extension with the correct application.
  • Update your software that should actually open three-dimensional ultrasound imaging files. Because only the current version supports the latest 3DH file format. Search, therefore, e.g. on the manufacturer website after an available 4D View update.
  • To make sure that your 3DH file is not corrupted or virus-infected, get the file again and scan it with Google's virustotal.com.
  • Click here to open your .3DH file online - secure, fast, and no downloads needed.
