the medical procedures and tests during pregnancy to detect potential fetal health issues
What is "prenatal diagnosis"?
Prenatal diagnosis refers to medical tests and procedures performed during pregnancy to check for any potential health issues or conditions in the unborn baby. These tests can help identify problems early, such as genetic disorders, structural abnormalities, such as heart defects, or growth issues. This allows for better planning and management of the pregnancy. Prenatal diagnosis can include various methods such as ultrasounds, blood tests, and amniocentesis, which involves checking a small amount of fluid from around the baby for any problems. The goal is to ensure the baby's health and address any concerns before birth.
