Anomaly Scan During Pregnancy: Why It Is Important
An anomaly scan, also known as a Level 2 scan, is an important ultrasound performed during the second trimester to examine the baby’s organs, growth, and overall development.
This scan helps identify structural abnormalities and ensures that the baby is developing normally. At Vasanth 4D Scans & Fetal Medicine Centre, Marthandam, anomaly scans are performed with expert care and advanced imaging technology.
Detailed anomaly scans help ensure better pregnancy monitoring and early medical planning if needed.
