Fetal growth Doppler scan is an ultrasound that observes the baby’s growth and development in the womb. It ensures the baby is growing at a healthy rate and identifies any potential growth restrictions early. The scan checks for appropriate size according to the gestational age and assesses the baby’s physical characteristics, amniotic fluid, and placental position.
