Cervical Length Scan

  • Cervical Length Scan

Cervical Length Scan

£85.00

Elite Community Ultrasound (ECU) is delighted to offer this Cervical Length scan for all pregnant women who are 16 years or above and in pregnancy between 16weeks and 37weeks.

What is a cervical length scan? This scan is to measure the length/size of the cervix (the neck of the womb) from its internal os (internal opening) to the external os (external opening that connects to vagina). Cervical length can become shorter too early in pregnancy, which increases the risk of premature labour and a premature birth.

What is preterm labour? If a woman goes into labour before she’s 37 weeks pregnant, it’s referred to as preterm labour or premature labour. The earlier premature birth occurs, the more serious the baby’s health risks.

Absolutely first class service. Same day appointment for a scan and a comprehensive report within an hour. The Doctor is kind, patient and helpful, happy to answer questions and encourages you to get in touch if anything comes up afterwards. I hope I don't have to use their services again, but they will be the first place I go to if I do!

By far the nicest facility and the kindest doctor at any scan facility. And even nicer than the William Harvey Hospital. I went in anxious due to a difficult pregnancy and Dr Gupta was so lovely and extremely competent. 10/10. We will definitely be going back.
