The answer and the reasoning
D. Ultrasound
The defining Obstetric imaging principle supports Ultrasound; it is the answer that best accounts for the finding or clinical aim described.
Option by option

CT pelvis is less appropriate because it does not match the stated obstetric imaging feature.
B. PET-CT
PET-CT does not provide the expected imaging or dental conclusion here.
C. Fluoroscopy
Fluoroscopy may be useful in another context but is not supported by this scenario.
D. Ultrasound (correct)
Correct. Ultrasound is the most appropriate interpretation of the key information.
