Antenatal Scan / Fetal Scan
See Your Baby Before You Hold Them – Safe, Accurate & Reassuring Antenatal Scans
What is an Antenatal Scan?
An antenatal scan—also known as a fetal scan or pregnancy ultrasound—is a vital part of prenatal care that helps monitor the baby’s growth, development, and well-being throughout the stages of pregnancy. These non-invasive imaging tests use high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of your unborn baby inside the womb.
Early and routine pregnancy scans in Siliguri not only provide visual reassurance for expecting parents but also play a critical role in detecting complications, tracking fetal health, and making timely medical decisions. Whether it’s confirming your pregnancy, checking the baby’s heartbeat, or evaluating organ development, pregnancy ultrasound scans in Siliguri are essential to ensure a safe journey to parenthood.

|---|---|---|---|
| Viability Scan | First | 6–9 Weeks | Confirms pregnancy, detects heartbeat, and rules out ectopic pregnancy |
| NT Scan | First | 11–13 Weeks | Assesses the risk of Down syndrome and chromosomal abnormalities |
| Anomaly Scan | Second | 18–22 Weeks | Detailed check of the baby’s organs, spine, limbs, and facial structures |
