Nuchal Translucency (NT) Scan (11–14 Weeks)

Preparation: Finish drinking 4–6 glasses of water one hour before your appointment time.
-
Duration: The scan takes approximately 20 minutes.
-
Eligibility: Performed between 11 and 14 weeks gestation (when fetal crown-rump length is 45mm–84mm).
Â
What This Scan Does:
-
Measures the fluid at the back of the baby’s neck

Confirms your due date and pregnancy measurements
-
Identifies multiple pregnancies and determines if babies share a placenta

Performs an initial anatomical assessment to check for early detectable birth defects
Â
Â
Important Notes:
-
Blood Test Timing: You must complete your NT ultrasound before taking your blood test (which must also occur within the 11–14 week window).
-
Follow-Up Care: Because many structural details cannot be seen this early, a comprehensive 18–20 week anatomy ultrasound is still recommended and will be arranged by your healthcare provider.
