Medical scans

How does ultrasound technology monitor fetal development?

Pregnancy ultrasounds use high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of the developing fetus. Different scan types (transabdominal, transvaginal, 3D/4D) provide detailed views of fetal anatomy, growth, and development throughout pregnancy.

Medical scans

What can specialized pregnancy scans detect?

Advanced pregnancy scans can detect chromosomal abnormalities, structural defects, growth restrictions, and placental issues. Doppler ultrasound assesses blood flow to the fetus, while 3D/4D imaging provides detailed facial and body structure visualization.

Medical scans

How do pregnancy scans guide medical decisions?

Scan results help determine delivery timing, identify high-risk pregnancies, plan necessary interventions, and provide reassurance about fetal well-being. They also help prepare parents for any special care needs the baby might require after birth.

Types of Pregnancy Ultrasound Scans

Pregnancy ultrasound scans offer valuable information about your baby's growth, position, overall health, and even gender at different stages of your pregnancy.

Early pregnancy scan

Growth scan

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about pregnancy scans

The timing of pregnancy scans varies based on medical needs and your pregnancy journey. Typically, the first scan (dating scan) occurs between 8-14 weeks, while the anomaly scan is done around 18-22 weeks. Additional scans may be recommended based on your specific situation.
Yes, pregnancy ultrasound scans are considered very safe. They use sound waves rather than radiation to create images of your baby. There have been no documented risks to the baby or mother from standard ultrasound procedures used during pregnancy.
For early pregnancy scans (before 10 weeks), you may be asked to have a full bladder to help visualize the baby better. For later scans, special preparation is usually not required. Wear comfortable, two-piece clothing for easy access to your abdomen. Your healthcare provider will give you specific instructions if needed.
In a standard pregnancy, you'll typically have at least two scans: a dating scan in the first trimester and an anomaly scan around 20 weeks. However, the number of scans can vary based on your health, your baby's development, and your healthcare provider's recommendations. Some women may require additional scans for monitoring specific conditions.
Gender determination is usually possible during the anomaly scan around 18-22 weeks, depending on your baby's position and the clarity of the images. However, it's important to note that gender prediction is not 100% accurate, and some healthcare facilities have policies regarding whether they disclose this information. Always let your sonographer know if you'd like to know your baby's gender or if you prefer to keep it a surprise.
