Dating and Viability Scan

The dating scan is an ultrasound done in early pregnancy to establish the gestational age of the pregnancy. The dating scan also can reveal other important information such as the number of foetuses and gestational sacs, the presence of a heartbeat and also the size of the foetus which helps to establish the gestation of the pregnancy

The Foetal Growth Scans

The Foetal Growth Scans are usually done in the third trimester. The growth scan provides useful information such as the foetal presentation and position, foetal size and growth of the baby, the volume of amniotic fluid around the baby, the blood flow to the baby from the placenta via the umbilical cord, the activity and movement of the baby and the length of the cervix.

3D and 4D Ultrasound scanning

What is a 3D Ultrasound?

A 3-dimensional ultrasound is an image created by processing multiple 2-dimenional images in order to get depth to the picture. It uses safe ultrasound waves, which are then processed by high power computer technology.

What is a 4D Ultrasound?

A 4D ultrasound takes multiple 2-dimensional ultrasound images, creates a 3-dimensional image and then does this repeated so that, over time, you can see movement of the foetus in 3-dimension. The 4th dimension is time.
