Pregnancy scans

Cervical Length Scan

Performed between 16 and 24 weeks
£40

If you are at risk of premature birth, it may be useful to have a scan to assess the length of the uterine cervix. A cervical scan is usually done after an abdominal scan.

The scan can be done at any stage from 16 weeks but is most useful if done sequentially at 16, 20, and 24 weeks of pregnancy.

The reasons for this scan could include:

  • Previous premature delivery
  • Loss of amniotic fluid
  • Previous cervical surgical procedures
What will I get?

Your  10-minute appointment includes:

  • Confirmation of fetal viability and hearing your baby’s heartbeat
  • A report stating the findings
  • Digital images sent to your email

Please note: During this scan, only fetal viability and the length of the cervix will be assessed. For a more detailed assessment of fetal size, please consider booking other scans appropriate for your gestational age.

IMPORTANT

The scan is performed via a transvaginal approach, as it provides the clearest visualization of the cervix.

PREPARATION

Since the scan is performed transvaginally, no special preparation is required.
