Prenatal Diagnosis Program
Complete Fetal Screening & Diagnosis — PEDIRA
High-resolution ultrasound, advanced imaging, invasive testing and genetics, integrated in one program.
Why Fetal Screening Matters
Maternal Age
Increasing maternal age raises certain pregnancy risks.
Genetic Factors
Family history and consanguinity increase the risk of genetic disorders.
Pre-existing Conditions
Diabetes, hypertension and chronic conditions require special monitoring.
Lifestyle Factors
Obesity and nutritional disorders can affect fetal development.
Complete Fetal Screening Program — PEDIRA
Chromosomal Abnormalities
Comprehensive screening for chromosomal disorders.
Structural Abnormalities
Detailed imaging to detect physical development issues.
Growth Monitoring
Assessment for placental insufficiency and growth restriction.
Multiple Pregnancy
Specialized monitoring for twins and higher-order multiples.
High-Resolution Ultrasound Timeline
| Gestational window | Purpose |
|---|---|
| 11 – 13⁺⁶ | Nuchal (NT) scan: early screening for chromosomal abnormalities and major structural defects; confirms fetal age; assesses placentation in multiples. |
| 12 – 24 | Cervical length (history of preterm birth) and uterine artery Doppler: risk of placental insufficiency and pre-eclampsia. |
| 18 – 22 | Anomaly / morphology scan: detailed assessment of all fetal organ systems and soft markers. |
| 28 – 32 | Growth & Doppler scan: placental function and fetal growth. |
| As needed | Specialized scans for specific concerns or follow-up. |
