Transvaginal scan for those undergoing IVF or fertility treatment
PRICE: €100 per scan
We require a referral letter from your fertility doctor for this scan.
This referral letter will be valid for 1 year from the date it was written.
Please get your doctor to specify how many scans will be required. We also need their email address so that we can send your report and images to them.
Your report will be sent to your referring physician on the day of your scan. If you require the report before a certain time, please let us know in advance so that we can make provision for this.
The role of this scan is to track the size of your follicles and thickness of your endometrium.
Please note: This scan is carried out by a Senior Sonographer. The scope of practice of a Senior Sonographer is to perform the imaging and document the findings. Sonographers are not permitted to diagnose conditions or provide advice to the patient based on the findings. This is to be done by the patient’s referring Medical Doctor.
We strongly suggest that you have a pelvic scan reported by a consultant radiologist prior to starting your fertility journey to rule out pathology like fibroids, polyps, uterine anomalies etc. In the event that we detect pathology during a follicular tracking scan, the sonographer will describe what they see (as they are not permitted to diagnose conditions) and they will strongly recommend that the findings are discussed with your doctor and that a comprehensive pelvic scan takes place, reported by a consultant radiologist.
