A Level 2 ultrasound is a women-specific ultrasound type that is conducted to monitor fetal development. 

Also known as foetal anomaly scan and second-trimester anomaly scan, this image diagnostics test is conducted during 18 to 23 weeks into pregnancy to check if the baby is developing normally or not. 

The Level 2 ultrasound focuses on the foetus’ vital organs, such as: 

• Spine
• Kidneys
• Heart
• Limbs
• Brain
• Face
• Spine
• Bowel

While the majority of pregnancies conclude without complications, there are always chances of fetal abnormalities during the foetal development in the mother’s womb. This is where the Level 2 ultrasound plays a crucial role in determining any abnormalities,

The foetal anomaly scan is a painless and non-invasive procedure that takes about 40 to 45 minutes to complete. 

As this image diagnostics test is devoid of radiation, it’s considered to be the safest image diagnostics test during pregnancy.
