Anomaly Scan (Level II) – Detecting Structural Abnormalities

At Genesiss Multispeciality Hospital, we provide the Anomaly Scan (Level II Ultrasound), a vital pregnancy screening test performed between 18–22 weeks of gestation. This detailed ultrasound checks for structural and developmental abnormalities in the baby. It evaluates the baby’s major organs, growth, amniotic fluid, placenta, and umbilical cord, ensuring both maternal and fetal well-being.

Problems / Concerns Addressed:

• Detection of congenital abnormalities (e.g., heart defects, spina bifida, cleft lip/palate).
• Identifying growth restrictions or abnormal fetal development.
• Checking placental position (to detect placenta previa).
• Assessing amniotic fluid levels.
• Detecting multiple pregnancies and their health.

Treatments / Services Offered:

• High-resolution ultrasound performed by trained radiologists and fetal medicine specialists.
• Early detection of birth defects, allowing timely medical or surgical intervention after delivery.
• Guidance for further tests (amniocentesis, genetic testing) if abnormalities are found.
• Monitoring pregnancy complications, such as growth restriction or abnormal placenta.
• Counseling and parental support regarding scan results and next steps.
