List of scans during pregnancy (list with small explanation of each)
Viability Scan: an early scan to confirm that you are pregnant, work out your due date and check that you and your baby are healthy.
Nuchal Translucency Scan: the routine 12 week scan to check your baby | s growth and development. We can assess the risk of Down | s, Patau | s and Edward | s syndromes and check for certain foetal anomalies.
Reassurance Scan: an additional scan to check on your baby | s health if you | re feeling anxious or you have a high risk pregnancy. We also recommend this test if you | re experiencing bleeding or other symptoms.
Sexing Scan: an extra scan to find out if you | re expecting a boy or a girl, before the next routine scan. We won | t usually perform the full range of health checks, but we | ll measure your baby and spot any major issues.
Anomaly Scan: the routine 20 week scan to check your baby | s health and development. We | ll measure your baby and check the heart, brain, spine, bowel, limbs and other structures for abnormalities. We | ll also look for any issues with the placenta, umbilical cord or amniotic fluid. We can usually tell your baby | s sex at this scan if you haven | t already found out.
Cervical Scan: an extra trans-vaginal scan to measure the length of your cervix if you are at risk of giving birth prematurely.
Wellbeing Scan: an additional scan to check on your baby | s development before he or she is born. We | ll measure your baby and perform a range of health checks.
4D Scan: a 3D colour ultrasound that will give you a chance to see your baby in a completely different way than the usual 2D black and white ultrasounds. You | ll be able to see your baby | s face and watch him or her moving in real time. We | ll check your baby | s growth and health during the scan, but this is mainly an opportunity for you to bond.
