Apart from the usual pregnancey and antenatal care services we also offer the following on request:

• Screening for chromosome abnormalities from the ninth week by prenatal test
• Additional ultrasound scans in combination with Doppler ultrasoundA special ultrasound scan of the arteries that supply the placenta with blood from the mother. The resistance to blood flow in the placenta is assessed with Doppler ultrasound of the umbilical artery. This gives an indication of foetal well-being and can help with the early detection and monitoring of problems such as pre-eclampsia (pregnancy-related high blood pressure and proteinuria, i.e. presence of protein in the urine) or placental insufficiency, a condition in which the placenta is not supplied with enough blood to meet the foetus’s needs, resulting in parts of the placenta dying and at the same time the foetus not receiving enough ‘food’ or oxygen.
• Ultrasound images on CD
• Screening for a variety of infections that may be relevant during pregnancy
