The dating pregnancy ultrasound scan is being used to detect the gestation age of the baby, something very useful for women who are uncertain of their last period or have irregular menstrual cycles and therefore making it difficult for their doctor to correctly estimate when the baby is due. This pregnancy scan also is known as viability scan can provide the very much needed reassurance that the pregnancy is progressing normally and it is not ectopic. Unfortunately, dating pregnancy scans are not routinely offered in the NHS and our expectant mothers choose to have their ultrasound scan with us for peace of mind. We need your bladder full for this scan so you need to drink 1lt 2 pints of water an hour before your scan. Before the scan, our sonographer will explain the examination procedure and discuss the reasons for having the scan. You will lie on the examination couch, asked to expose your lower abdomen and a small amount of gel will be placed on the skin.
