Ecogenic intracardiac foci s seen many a times in second trimester level 2 scan.. Its a soft marker.. If its the isolated findings usually its nothing to be worried about.. However if associated with other markers then it has to be taken real seriously.. Ideally a fetal ECHO s advisable to rule out ny possible deformity in fetal heart.. Initiate a direct consult for further management
