Gynecology scan is usually done around 20th week of pregnancy; and is also called level 2 ultrasound. However, obstetric scan can be done whenever an abnormality in the pelvic or abdominal regions are suspected.
It assesses the anatomical structures of pelvic, placental, and fetal organs.
This is a routinely scan which is considered as a follow up in the prenatal care.
However, an obstetric scan specifically involves the detection of abnormalities such as viability, gestational age (growth and development of the fetus), missed abortion, ectopic gestation, placental maturity (maturation of the embryo in placenta), fetal weight, amount of fluid in the placental sac, etc.
It uses ultrasound rays of extremely high frequency to gain imaging on the developing fetus.
The ultrasound is done via Edan U60 which is an ultrasound machine manufactured based on the advanced and latest technological protocols of in-depth scanning.
When you should do the scan?
In the case of pregnancy, one should do detailed ultrasound between 18th to 21st week of pregnancy.
The purpose of the scan is to check if any abnormality exists in the baby. Therefore, around the 20th week, screening test or ultrasound is recommended in case of gynecological ultrasound.
