Yes you should go for nipt to further rule out chromosomal abnormality .
Though hydronephrosis and evhogenic foci are soft markers .
But nipt is recommended for better reassurance
Nipt is not necessary but advisable .
And also go for fetal cardiac echo if not planning on nopt

Mild hydronephrosis and intracardiac echogenic focus are common soft markers seen in many normal pregnancies. The risk estimate of 1:2126 is considered low risk.
NIPT (Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing) is suggested for further reassurance, especially with soft markers.
