Fetal Echocardiography

About Fetal Echocardiography

Fetal echocardiography is a specialized and detailed ultrasound examination used to evaluate the structure and function of the unborn baby’s heart. It is typically recommended in high-risk pregnancies, such as when there is a family history of congenital heart disease, maternal health conditions, or abnormal findings in routine scans. This advanced imaging technique allows specialists to closely assess the formation of the heart chambers, valves, and blood flow patterns, helping detect any congenital heart defects at an early stage. Early diagnosis enables better planning, timely medical intervention, and improved outcomes for the baby after birth. The procedure is safe, non-invasive, and plays a crucial role in ensuring optimal fetal cardiac health.
