Complex ultrasound for differential diagnosis with digital image and video documentation: Complex sonographic disease and deformity diagnostics for the fetus

A detailed ultrasound scan has been done of your unborn child.

An ultrasound examination involves sending ultrasound waves from an ultrasound probe in the body. Depending on the structure of the tissue, different numbers of ultrasound waves are reflected. These waves are then converted to images that can be viewed on a screen.

The ultrasound scan can be used to look for signs of diseases or deformities.

Additional indicator

If necessary, additional letters are appended to OPS codes to indicate which side of the body is affected.

  • L: Left
  • R: Right
  • B: Both sides

Further information

Note

Your doctor will assist you with any health-related questions and explain the OPS code to you in a direct consultation if necessary.
