What is a 2D Anatomy Scan?
A 2D anatomy scan, also known as a fetal anatomy scan or level II ultrasound, is a detailed examination that focuses on assessing the anatomy and development of your baby. Using two-dimensional ultrasound technology, this scan provides a comprehensive view of your baby’s organs, limbs, and other structures, ensuring that they are developing properly.
When is the Best Week to Do a 2D Anatomy Scan?
The optimal time for a 2D anatomy scan is typically between 20 to 24 weeks of pregnancy. During this period, your baby’s anatomy is sufficiently developed for accurate assessment, and any potential abnormalities can be detected early, allowing for timely interventions if necessary.
Understanding the Differences: a 2D growth scan and a 2D anatomy scan:
- 2D Growth Scan: Primarily focuses on assessing fetal growth and development, including measurements such as head circumference, abdominal circumference, and femur length.
- 2D Anatomy Scan: A more comprehensive ultrasound examination that evaluates fetal anatomy in detail, including organs, limbs, and other structures, to ensure proper development and detect any abnormalities.
