  • Fetal Echocardiography - A specialized ultrasound that details the structure of the baby's heart

  • Amniocentesis - A small sampling of amniotic fluid is collected during the second trimester if it is suspected that your baby may have a possible chromosomal abnormality such as Down syndrome or other genetic conditions.
  • Chorionic Villus sampling (CVS) - A small sampling performed during the first trimester that may also provide information on chromosomal abnormalities if needed.
