Down patients have a typical face:
For the first time, the British scientists have used ultrasound techniques to search for a fetal nasal bones at 11-14 weeks. Research shows that, without the bones, increased risk of fetal Down will increase 150 times.
This method reduces the number of cases of miscarriage, five times by the application of current diagnostic methods.
73% of 59 fetuses with Down syndrome later.
0.5% of 603 fetuses with Down syndrome after this.
Advantages of this technique can be implemented soon, from 11-14 weeks (18-21 weeks compared to the old method). This means that the abortion will be done soon, less dangerous to the mother. Also, if your baby is not sick, the mother can rest very soon.
Number of false positives (not sick but the result is positive) is less, causing many women to do dangerous tricks unnecessary.
The following table compares the two diagnostic methods old and new:
Find the fuzzy ultrasound fetal back of the neck (measured amount of fluid buildup here).
If the above tests for a positive result, we will conduct amniocentesis of pregnant women to do DNA testing.
