DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ANOMALY AND ULTRASOUND SCAN

A 20-week ultrasound, sometimes called an anatomy scan or anomaly scan, is a prenatal ultrasound performed between 18 and 22 weeks of pregnancy. It checks on the physical development of the fetus and can detect certain congenital disorders as well as major anatomical abnormalities.

 Ultrasound that checks your baby’s size and body organs. Your doctor is likely to recommend you have this test, but  decision to do so is yours. A morphology scan is sometimes called a ‘fetal anomaly’ scan since it is one way your doctor will check your baby for birth defects.
