Ultrasounds for Your High-Risk Pregnancy
Ultrasounds use high-frequency sound waves to produce images of the inside of a person’s body. Ultrasound technology is safe and effective with no known risks to a mother or her baby. Our facility offers a variety of ultrasound examinations, including:
- First trimester ultrasound with genetic risk assessment
- Transvaginal cervical length measurement
- Complete anatomical OB ultrasound
- Targeted anatomical OB ultrasound
- Fetal echocardiogram
- Middle cerebral artery Doppler velocimetry
- Umbilical artery Doppler velocimetry
- Antepartum fetal testing, e.g., biophysical profile and amniotic fluid index
Prenatal Diagnosis and Fetal Therapy Services
Not all genetic conditions can be confirmed with ultrasound technology. For these conditions, more detailed prenatal screening and/or diagnosis may be required. Our team of Maternal-Fetal Medicine Specialists is trained to provide and interpret the following:
- Noninvasive prenatal screening
- Parental gene carrier screening
- Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) with chromosomal and microarray analysis
- Amniocentesis with chromosomal and microarray analysis
- Percutaneous umbilical blood sampling and fetal transfusion
- Fetal drainage and injection procedures
The Importance of Prenatal Testing During a High-Risk Pregnancy
