The anatomy component is structured with reference to the NHS Fetal Anomaly Screening Programme 20-week scan framework, while the uterine artery Doppler assesses resistance to blood flow in the maternal vessels supplying the placenta.<\/div><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>How much is the combined scan?<\/summary><div class=\"fu-faq-body\">The Fetal Anatomy &amp; Uterine Artery Doppler Scan is \u00a3250 at Tunbridge Wells and Orpington and \u00a3300 at Canary Wharf.<\/div><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>When is the best time to book?<\/summary><div class=\"fu-faq-body\">The detailed anatomy component is aligned with the NHS FASP mid-pregnancy screening window of 18 weeks plus 0 days to 20 weeks plus 6 days. Uterine artery Doppler is commonly assessed around 20 to 24 weeks. For a combined appointment, booking around the 20-week period is generally the most practical.<\/div><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>Is this the same as the NHS 20-week screening scan?<\/summary><div class=\"fu-faq-body\">No. UKSONO provides a private detailed ultrasound assessment structured with reference to the current FASP anatomy and fetal cardiac framework. It is not part of the nationally commissioned NHS FASP screening programme and does not replace your NHS screening appointment.<\/div><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>What fetal anatomy is examined?<\/summary><div class=\"fu-faq-body\">The scan systematically reviews major fetal structures including the brain and head, face, spine, heart and outflow views, chest, abdomen, kidneys, bladder, abdominal wall, skeleton and limbs, together with standard fetal biometry where technically obtainable.<\/div><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>What heart views are included?<\/summary><div class=\"fu-faq-body\">Where technically obtainable, the cardiac review includes fetal situs, four-chamber view, left ventricular outflow tract, right ventricular outflow tract or three-vessel view, and the three-vessel-and-trachea view.<\/div><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>What is a uterine artery Doppler?<\/summary><div class=\"fu-faq-body\">Uterine artery Doppler uses colour and pulsed-wave Doppler to assess blood-flow waveforms in the left and right uterine arteries. The pulsatility index can be measured and interpreted in relation to gestational age.<\/div><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>What does uterine artery Doppler tell us?<\/summary><div class=\"fu-faq-body\">Uterine artery Doppler provides information about resistance within the maternal circulation supplying the placenta. Higher resistance can be associated with a greater chance of placental dysfunction, fetal growth restriction and pre-eclampsia, but the Doppler result is not a diagnosis on its own.<\/div><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>Does this scan diagnose pre-eclampsia?<\/summary><div class=\"fu-faq-body\">No. Pre-eclampsia is not diagnosed by uterine artery Doppler alone. Doppler findings should be interpreted alongside maternal history, blood pressure, symptoms and, where relevant, other clinical or biochemical assessments.<\/div><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>Does the scan check the placenta and amniotic fluid?<\/summary><div class=\"fu-faq-body\">Yes. Placental position and an amniotic fluid overview are reviewed as part of good clinical obstetric ultrasound practice. The uterine artery Doppler assesses maternal blood flow supplying the placenta rather than fetal umbilical cord blood flow.<\/div><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>Is uterine artery Doppler the same as umbilical artery Doppler?<\/summary><div class=\"fu-faq-body\">No. Uterine artery Doppler assesses maternal vessels supplying the placenta. Umbilical artery Doppler assesses blood flow in the baby&#x27;s umbilical cord and is usually used in later-pregnancy growth and wellbeing assessment.<\/div><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>What if an anatomical abnormality is suspected?<\/summary><div class=\"fu-faq-body\">Any unexpected or suspected structural finding will be explained sensitively and documented. Where appropriate, you will be advised to contact your NHS maternity team or fetal medicine service for specialist assessment.<\/div><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>What if the uterine artery Doppler is raised?<\/summary><div class=\"fu-faq-body\">The Sonographer will explain the Doppler finding and document it in your report. Depending on the result and your clinical context, you may be advised to discuss the finding with your midwife, obstetric team or fetal medicine service, as additional growth surveillance may be appropriate.<\/div><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>Will I receive a report and images?<\/summary><div class=\"fu-faq-body\">Yes. You receive a same-day digital report and ultrasound images. The report documents both the fetal anatomical assessment and the uterine artery Doppler findings, including Doppler indices where obtained.<\/div><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>Do I need a referral?<\/summary><div class=\"fu-faq-body\">No. You can self-refer and book directly. Please continue to attend all NHS antenatal and screening appointments, including your NHS 20-week screening scan if offered.<\/div><\/details>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n\r\n<section
