Prenatal Diagnostics

Prenatal diagnostics refers to a set of medical tests and procedures used during pregnancy to assess the health of the fetus. These tests can identify genetic conditions, physical anomalies, and other health concerns early on. Common methods include blood tests, ultrasounds, and invasive procedures like amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling (CVS). The information gained from prenatal diagnostics helps expectant parents and healthcare providers make informed decisions about care, support, and potential interventions before and after birth. Overall, these diagnostics play a vital role in ensuring the well-being of both mother and child.
