Prenatal Screening & Diagnostic Testing
Nagai Maternity Hospital provides NIPT (Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing) and amniocentesis.
NIPT is a screening test that uses a maternal blood sample to assess the possibility of:
- Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome)
- Trisomy 18
- Trisomy 13
NIPT is available from 10 weeks 0 days to 15 weeks 6 days of pregnancy.
Amniocentesis is a diagnostic test that examines fetal chromosomes using a small amount of amniotic fluid. It may be recommended when NIPT or another screening test shows a high-risk result, when an abnormality is suspected on ultrasound, or when diagnostic testing is otherwise medically indicated.
Our doctors will explain which test may be appropriate for you based on your gestational age, screening results, ultrasound findings, and medical history.
Early Surgical Abortion
We provide surgical abortion during early pregnancy.
The procedure is generally performed as a day procedure using suction aspiration under intravenous anesthesia.
