Regarding NT scan & Double marker test
Hello Doctors
I am 12 weeks pregnant. My doctor had asked me to get my Double marker test before 5 days of NT scan. But some doctors are saying to get NT scan done first and then after that double marker test without any difference in days between the two. Can anyone pls tell me what is the correct time of NT scan and Double marker test to be done?

Double marker test will be done only after the nt scan not before
Nt scan can be done between 12 weeks to 13 weeks 5 days
N then the double marker can be done not necessarily immediately after the nt scan but before 13 weeks 5 days

First get your NTNB scan done because the values of this ultrasound will be needed for interpretation of dual marker report..
No gap is required between two.
