The Anomaly Scan, also known as the Level 2 Scan or Mid-Pregnancy Ultrasound, is one of the most important scans during pregnancy. At Shree Diagnostics, Howrah, we provide highly detailed, safe, and accurate anomaly scans performed by specialized Radiologists using advanced high-resolution ultrasound machines.

This scan ensures your baby’s development is progressing normally and helps detect any structural abnormalities early for proper care planning.

What is an Anomaly Scan?

An Anomaly Scan is a comprehensive fetal ultrasound performed between 18 to 22 weeks of pregnancy.
It assesses the baby’s growth, anatomy, organs, limbs, spine, brain, and overall development.

This scan checks for:

• Structural or congenital abnormalities
• Heart and brain development issues
• Kidney, stomach & bladder structures
• Facial features (cleft lip, jaw)
• Spine and limb formation
• Placenta location & amniotic fluid
• Umbilical cord insertion
• Fetal growth and movements

It is a non-invasive, safe and essential part of antenatal care.

Why the Anomaly Scan is Important

Doctors recommend this scan because it:

• Provides a detailed check of all fetal organs
• Detects congenital anomalies early
• Helps assess fetal growth
• Identifies placenta previa or low-lying placenta
• Checks umbilical cord and amniotic fluid
• Ensures healthy development of brain, heart & spine
• Helps plan further management if any condition is detected

This scan plays a critical role in ensuring a safe pregnancy and delivery.
