Did you know your placenta can sit in different positions inside the uterus?

During ultrasound, specialists check how close it is to the cervix — an important part of ensuring a safe delivery.

Most placentas move upward as pregnancy progresses, but if it remains low (placenta praevia), your care team will guide the safest plan for birth.

A small detail that makes a big difference in pregnancy care.

A higher-risk result isn’t a diagnosis — it just means more testing or partner screening may be needed.

Our Genetic Counsellor explains what those next steps look like and how results are interpreted.

When conception takes longer than expected, one common factor is the health of your Fallopian tubes — the pathway connecting your ovaries and uterus.

A simple ultrasound test called HyCoSy can reveal whether your tubes are open or blocked, helping you and your doctor understand what’s happening behind the scenes.

No surgery. No X-rays. Just clarity.

It’s not just an extra step — there’s a good reason we recommend bowel preparation before your endometriosis scan.

By clearing the bowel, we can get a much clearer view of the pelvic organs — especially areas where endometriosis can hide, like between the bowel and uterus. This simple preparation helps us detect disease more accurately and plan the best care for you.

Today we celebrate Sonographers Day, part of Medical Ultrasound Awareness Month (MUAM) — a time to recognise the crucial role sonographers play in healthcare.

At Ultrasound Care, our sonographers are at the heart of what we do. Their skill, precision, and compassion ensure every patient receives the highest standard of care — from providing accurate imaging and diagnosis to offering reassurance during important moments in their health journey.

We’re proud to acknowledge and thank our sonographers for their expertise and the care they show to every patient, every day.

A dating scan is an ultrasound examination that helps establish the gestational age of your pregnancy. It’s often one of the first ultrasounds performed and provides important information for both you and your healthcare provider.

During the scan, we can see:

➡️ The number of fetuses, gestation sacs, and placentas
➡️ The presence of a heartbeat
➡️ The size of the fetus, which helps estimate gestational age
➡️ Features of the uterus, including its shape or the presence of fibroids

Dating scans are a valuable step in monitoring a healthy pregnancy, giving you reassurance and helping guide your care moving forward.

Pelvic ultrasound is a safe and effective way to assess the reproductive organs of young women — using sound waves, not radiation.

It can help identify the cause of:

➡️ Pelvic pain
➡️ Unexpected bleeding
➡️ Missing periods
➡️ Pelvic masses
➡️ Questions about the presence or structure of the uterus and ovaries

Some young women may be born with unusual uterine shapes — the uterus forms from two halves that fuse during early development. Blockages or structural differences can cause pain or other symptoms, and ultrasound is the best way to detect these issues early.

Our team of experienced doctors and sonographers ensures every adolescent feels comfortable, safe, and respected, with privacy maintained throughout the scan.

Pelvic ultrasound provides clarity, reassurance, and guidance for appropriate care when it’s needed most.

October is recognised globally as Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month — a time for families, communities, and healthcare professionals to come together to break the silence surrounding miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant death.

This month holds deep significance for those who have experienced the devastating loss of a baby. It’s a time to honour their memory, acknowledge the grief that too often goes unspoken, and remind families that they are not alone.

Through greater awareness, support, and education, we can foster more understanding and compassion for those navigating the profound experience of pregnancy and infant loss.

Ultrasound Care turns 21

Ultrasound Care began way back in 1996, in a single borrowed consulting room at the RPA Medical Centre in Newtown.

Dr Philippa Ramsay was an obstetrician/gynaecologist who sub-specialised in ultrasound. She had worked in other private ultrasound practices and as the first female O&G Ultrasound specialist in Sydney, she could see how it could be done better, with more understanding of the women's needs.

She was well supported by her colleagues who wanted their patients treated with sensitivity and care. She became busier and was soon joined by highly skilled sonographers and specialists who had a similar ethos.

The sonographers Mary McPhail and Rowena Gibson are still at Ultrasound Care 20 years later!!
