Growth & Doppler Scan

Monitor baby's growth, blood flow and well-being in pregnancy

Are you concerned or anxious to know about your baby’s growth and blood circulation during pregnancy? No need to worry further because a growth & doppler scan is just what you need. This scan is typically performed during the third-trimester (around 28–36 weeks) to measure the size of the fetal head (head circumference and diameter), abdomen, and limbs (femur length), along with evaluating the level of blood flow. You can undergo a growth & doppler scan in Siliguri to determine whether your baby is growing healthy or not and if there is adequate blood flow to the fetus.
