Common questions about fetal medicine and genetics
First trimester screening is typically performed between 11-14 weeks of pregnancy. This is the optimal time to measure nuchal translucency and perform biochemical blood tests. The screening combines ultrasound measurements with blood test results to assess the risk of chromosomal abnormalities.
Screening tests (like NIPT, NT scan) assess the risk or probability of a condition but don't provide a definitive diagnosis. Diagnostic tests (like amniocentesis, CVS) provide definitive answers about whether a condition is present but carry a small risk. We'll help you understand which tests are appropriate for your situation.
Yes, NIPT is completely safe for both mother and baby. It's a non-invasive test that only requires a blood sample from the mother, with no risk of miscarriage. The test analyzes cell-free fetal DNA present in the mother's bloodstream to screen for chromosomal abnormalities with high accuracy.
If an abnormality is detected, our fetal medicine specialists will provide detailed counseling about the condition, its implications, and available options. We offer comprehensive support including additional diagnostic tests, expert consultations, and guidance on management options. Our team is here to support you through every step of the process.
