Group 1: Legal Compliance and Violations - A pregnancy photography store in Shanghai was reported for using ultrasound machines to take dynamic images of fetuses and suggesting gender through gifts and comments [1][3]. - The store has been operating for three years, conducting non-medical fetal gender identification, which is prohibited under the regulations that forbid any non-medical gender identification and selective termination of pregnancy [3][7]. - The use of ultrasound machines by non-medical institutions is illegal, as these devices are classified as medical equipment and should only be used in clinical settings by qualified personnel [7][8].
