Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, a full bladder helps in better visualization of the uterus and developing fetus during early pregnancy scans.
Ultrasound (USG) is a safe, radiation-free imaging method that uses sound waves to produce real-time images of internal organs, tissues, and blood flow.
Unlike X-rays, ultrasounds use no ionizing radiation, making them completely safe—especially during pregnancy.
Scans can be done externally over the skin, internally (like transvaginal scans), or using advanced techniques like 3D/4D or Doppler studies.
A 3D scan shows still images of the baby’s features, while 4D adds real-time motion—great for bonding and early detection of anomalies.
Yes, we offer advanced 3D and 4D pregnancy scans to help you visualize your baby in lifelike detail.
FWB typically stands for Fetal Well-Being scan, which checks fetal growth, amniotic fluid, placenta position, and fetal movements.
All ultrasounds are interpreted by experienced radiologists at Navkar Radio Diagnostics & Imaging. Reports are usually available the same day or next day.
You’ll see the location of the pregnancy, fetal heartbeat, and estimated gestational age to ensure a healthy early pregnancy.
In early pregnancy, ultrasound dating is more accurate than LMP-based estimates and can vary by just a few days.
Most reports are available within a few hours on the same day. Advanced CT or MRI scans may take a little longer.
In order to see how a baby is growing inside the womb, a pregnancy ultrasound or scan uses sound waves. These scans are performed periodically throughout the pregnancy, to track the growth and development of the fetus.
No, a pregnancy scan poses no risk to the unborn child. There is no evidence that ultrasound waves harm the mother or the fetus.
An ultrasound called a nuchal translucency (NT) scan is done between the eleventh and fourteenth weeks of pregnancy. This test is done to measure the nuchal fold, to determine its thickness. Nuchal fold thickness measurement aids in identifying your babys likelihood of having Down syndrome and other genetic abnormalities. The likelihood of chromosomal abnormalities is influenced by the measurement of nuchal translucency, your age, the gestational age of your child, and the presence of a double maker.
In order to clearly see the uterus and ovaries, we need a full bladder, which moves the uterus into a better position and brightens the entire pelvis. Additionally, it moves the bowel and intestines out of the way.
We can finish the imaging in 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the type of scan used. Depending on the babys position, more thorough scans might be necessary, which takes more time.
The USG test uses high-frequency sound waves to scan the body’s internal organs and assess their health. An ultrasound scan of the pelvis, which is done during a USG level II examination, provides a thorough view of the baby’s growth inside the mother’s womb. The scan shows the baby’s heart, stomach, brain, kidneys, spine, face, and other internal organs.
Between 7 and 11 weeks pregnant is the optimal time for an early pregnancy scan.
In pregnancy, ultrasound dating is incredibly accurate, especially during the first trimester. According to studies, estimates of the due date made during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy are typically accurate to within 3 to 5 days.
No, we specialize in diagnostic imaging only. We do not provide laboratory blood testing services.
