If your scan shows an increased NT measurement, serum markers also in combination give a better base for risk assessment. In case of increased risk -NIPT is advisable to rule out any major abnormalities.

See for other markers like nasal bone and faciomaxillary angle in ultrasound . Do a blood test for PAPPA and alpha feto protein and unconjugated estriol (Triple Test ) before NIPT
Next Steps
Calculate risk ratio before NIPT
