Trisomy 21

2019-02-14 14:59:26
On 9th Feb I did my NT Scan where the NT was 2.40 and next day I did the double marker test where the combined trisomy was 1:136. My doctor suggested me another doctor for scan and further consultations where she performed the NT Scan where the NT was 2.30 and combined trisomy is 1:842. 1. How come there is so much of difference in combined trisomy data. 2. Further the doctors suggested to go either for NIPT or Needle test. As I am only 13 weeks pregnant now, not sure which one to opt considering the cons of both. Please suggest.

NT, Dual marker test, NIPT ARE SCREENING TEST. AMNIOCENTESIS IS DEFINATIVE TEST TO DIAGNOSE CHROMOSOMAL ABNORMALITY IN FOETUS. IN GOOD HAND THERE IS NO PROBLEM TO DO AMNIOCENTESIS.
