Continue your regular medication unless told otherwise. Tell the centre if you have diabetes, kidney problems, or allergies, especially if a contrast study is planned.

What to bring:

Bring your doctor's referral, a valid photo ID, your insurance card if using cashless OPD, and any previous scans or reports so the radiologist can compare.

Book a slot that suits you at an accredited GetVisit centre in Shimlapuri or Sunet, Ludhiana. Wear loose clothing without metal fasteners, and remove jewellery before the scan.

Single standalone test:

When does a doctor order Ultrasound Fetal Growth (Twins)?

Ultrasound Fetal Growth (Twins) is usually part of routine obstetric ultrasound care and twin surveillance protocols. It is ordered for slow or unequal growth, decreased fetal movement, abnormal fundal height, or maternal conditions like high blood pressure or diabetes.

Who should get Twins done in Ludhiana?

Ludhiana's large industrial workforce, ghee- and dairy-rich Punjabi diet driving high diabetes and cardiovascular prevalence, winter air pollution, and seasonal monsoon infections make regular preventive diagnostic testing an important habit for residents citywide. Imaging benefits patients with pain, swelling, a palpable lump, injury, or an abnormal earlier finding, as well as those monitoring a known condition. GetVisit helps residents of Rajguru Nagar, Gill Road, and across Ludhiana book accredited imaging with clear pricing.

What can Twins help detect?

The test helps diagnose growth restriction, twin-to-twin transfusion, and fluid problems. Abnormal results may come from placental issues, maternal illness, smoking, or medications, and a family history of growth problems may raise testing frequency.

What do Twins results mean?

An imaging report describes what the scan shows and whether it is normal or reveals a specific finding. A qualified radiologist interprets the images, and your doctor explains what any finding means for you and whether a further test or treatment is needed. The FAQs below cover what this scan can and cannot show.

How often should Twins be repeated?

For preventive screening with a normal baseline: annually for most adults above 35. For monitoring a known condition: at the interval your specialist recommends, typically every 3 to 6 months for active conditions and annually for stable, well-controlled ones.

What happens after your Twins results are ready?

Once your results appear in your GetVisit profile, discuss them with your doctor or a GetVisit-verified specialist. Your doctor will interpret each value in the context of your full health history, current medications, and symptoms, and advise on the next step: lifestyle change, repeat testing, medication adjustment, or specialist referral.
