What is the difference between a regular ultrasound and a Color Doppler scan?

A regular ultrasound produces images of organs and tissues, while a Color Doppler ultrasound additionally shows the direction and speed of blood flow through arteries and veins using color signals. Color Doppler is commonly used to detect blood clots, blockages, varicose veins, and to assess blood flow during pregnancy.

A FibroScan is a non-invasive test used to measure liver stiffness and fat content, helping diagnose and monitor conditions such as fatty liver disease, hepatitis, cirrhosis, and liver fibrosis. It is a painless alternative to a liver biopsy and provides instant results.

When is a Color Doppler scan recommended?

Color Doppler is recommended to evaluate symptoms such as leg swelling or pain (to check for deep vein thrombosis), varicose veins, suspected arterial blockages, and to monitor blood flow to the baby and placenta during high-risk pregnancies.

What is the best time to get a 4D ultrasound during pregnancy?

The best time for a 4D ultrasound is generally between 26 and 30 weeks of pregnancy, when facial features and movements are best visualised. Your obstetrician may recommend a specific timing based on your pregnancy progress and any additional screening needs.
