Cervical Length Scan

  • Cervical Length Scan

Cervical Length Scan

£90.00

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.

Booked an early pregnancy scan, and they were sensational! Bent over backwards to make sure we had an appointment time that worked for us, even came in early so that we could have the scan on the day we wanted. Dr Gupta was so knowledgeable, reassuring, funny and kind. So many words of encouragement and wisdom. Would highly recommend!

Excellent prompt, detailed, and explanatory scan with follow up written report the following day. Saved a lot of waiting time for an NHS MSK ultrasound scan and so helped to moved things along considerably. Very kind and courteous treatment. Highly recommended.

We had a very good experience with Dr Gupta, baby was very stubborn at our 4D scan and we were offered a free rescan where we still couldn't see baby well but he gave us multiple opportunities to go for a walk to get baby to move to get better photos.
