HCPCS 76805

Ultrasound, pregnant uterus, real time with image documentation, fetal and maternal evaluation, after first trimester (> or = 14 weeks 0 days), transabdominal approach; single or first gestation

AI EXPLANATION: A fetal anatomy ultrasound, often called an anatomy scan, is an imaging exam performed during the second trimester of pregnancy. A healthcare provider glides a handheld ultrasound transducer across the abdomen to capture real-time images of the uterus, placenta, and developing baby. The exam evaluates overall fetal growth and systematically checks the structure and development of major organs, including the brain, heart, spine, kidneys, and limbs.
