If you are pregnant, you are entitled to two ultrasound examinations free of charge. We aim to schedule the early pregnancy ultrasound scan on gestational weeks 12+0–13+3 and the morphology ultrasound scan on gestational weeks 20+0–21+3.
The ultrasound examinations are voluntary. In the early pregnancy ultrasound examination, it is also possible to perform a nuchal translucency scan associated with chromosomal aberrations of the fetus, as well as take a blood sample.
The screening examination is most often performed by a midwife. In some of the high-risk pregnancies, the examinations are carried out by a specialist, in which case a fee will be charged for the appointment. If a miscarriage is detected during prenatal screening, a medical examination by a doctor is required, which is subject to a fee.
The duration of the screening scan is 30 minutes.
We train future health care professionals in our unit. We hope that you will allow students to participate in your care. Consenting or refusing student participation will not affect your care.
