Fetal Medicine London FAQs
What is the difference between a standard pregnancy scan and a fetal medicine scan?
A standard scan checks basic growth and fetal heartbeat. A fetal medicine scan is a highly detailed diagnostic assessment performed by a subspecialised private fetal medicine consultant using high-definition ultrasound to evaluate intricate anatomical structures, organ development, blood flow, and subtle markers for genetic conditions.
What genetic tests are available at your private fetal medicine clinic?
At our fetal medicine clinic, we offer a complete range of prenatal screening and diagnostic options, including Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing (NIPT) for common chromosomal conditions, extended carrier screening, and diagnostic procedures such as Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS) and Amniocentesis for detailed genetic analysis.
Do I need a GP referral to see a private fetal medicine consultant near London?
No. You do not need a GP referral to see a fetal medicine specialist or book a scan at Central Health London. You can self-refer at any point in your pregnancy, whether for routine reassurance or to seek a second opinion regarding a previous scan result. Get in touch with our team today to discuss your options further.
When should I book a detailed fetal anomaly scan with a fetal medicine consultant?
A detailed fetal anomaly scan (often called a mid-pregnancy scan) is typically performed between 18 and 22 weeks of pregnancy. However, early fetal anatomy scans can also be carried out from 13 to 16 weeks by your fetal medicine consultant for early reassurance.
What happens if an unexpected finding is detected during my scan?
If a concern is identified, your fetal medicine specialist consultant will discuss the findings with you immediately. We provide compassionate expert counselling, explain all next steps or further diagnostic options clearly, and coordinate any required tertiary specialist care without delay.
