What is Fetal Echocardiography?
Fetal echocardiography is a specialized ultrasound that examines the heart of a fetus during pregnancy. This non-invasive procedure allows our skilled cardiologists to detect any potential heart defects early on, ensuring timely intervention if necessary.
Benefits of Fetal Echocardiography
- Early Detection: Identifies congenital heart defects early in pregnancy.
- Peace of Mind: Provides reassurance for expectant parents.
- Informed Decisions: Helps families make informed choices regarding their baby’s health.
- Comprehensive Care: Part of our broader maternal-fetal medicine services.
The Procedure
During the fetal echocardiogram, our expert technicians will use high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images of your baby’s heart. The procedure typically lasts about 30-60 minutes and is performed between 18-24 weeks of pregnancy.
What to Expect:
- Preparation: You may be asked to drink water before the test for better imaging.
- During the Test: You will lie on an examination table while the technician applies gel on your abdomen and moves a transducer over it.
- Post-Test: Results will be discussed with you immediately after the procedure.
