Question
What tests are needed to check for fetal abnormalities?
Answer
To check for fetal abnormalities, tests such as Down syndrome screening and three-dimensional ultrasound examinations are required. Down syndrome screening primarily checks for chromosomal abnormalities in the fetus, while the three-dimensional ultrasound can be used to examine the fetus’s structure for normalcy. These tests can help doctors assess the health of the fetus, but not all abnormalities can be detected through these examinations.
