Advanced Diagnostic Techniques
Our team utilizes advanced diagnostic techniques and state-of-the-art equipment to monitor the health and development of both mother and baby. These include:
- Ultrasound Imaging: We employ ultrasound technology to visualize the fetus, track growth, and identify any potential abnormalities.
- Genetic Testing: Through genetic testing, we can screen for chromosomal abnormalities, inherited disorders, and other genetic conditions.
- Fetal Echocardiography: This non-invasive procedure allows us to assess the structure and function of the fetus's heart, helping to detect any heart defects or abnormalities.
- Amniocentesis: When necessary, we can perform amniocentesis to obtain a small sample of amniotic fluid for further analysis, aiding in the detection of genetic disorders.
- Maternal-Fetal Monitoring: We closely monitor the well-being of both mother and baby throughout the pregnancy, using various methods such as non-stress tests, biophysical profiles, and Doppler ultrasound.
