I am 15 weeks pregnant and had an ultrasound showing the nuchal translucency was 1.2mm at 12 weeks and 5 days.

I forgot to ask the doctor what the results of Trisomi 21 and Trisomi 18 mean?

Doctor, can you tell me what disease the NIPT test is used to diagnose? Can the 23-pair NIPT test identify autism in children? Can it identify excess folic acid?

am 32 years old this year. I am 23 weeks pregnant with my second child. I went for a check-up and all the indicators are normal except for the baby's nasal bone measuring 5.5mm. The doctor said that the baby's nose is a bit shorter than the standard, because at week 20, the baby's nasal bone measured 5.2mm. I did the Double test at week 12 and the risk was low at 1:547. So doctor, can you tell me if a 23-week-old fetus has a short nasal bone? Is my baby likely to have Down syndrome? Is the NIPT test accurate now?

had the NIPT test at 9 weeks. Doctor, if I have done the NIPT test, do I still need to measure the nuchal translucency?
