Fetal Echo
Fetal echocardiography is echocardiographic assessment of the heart of the fetus during pregnancy.
The test can give a fairly good idea of the anatomy of the heart and its function during prenatal period.
Congenital heart diseases can be recognised and this is all the more necessary if there is family history of congenital heart disease (heart defects by birth). The incidence of defects becomes higher when there is a family history of the same.
Certain defects if known prenatally can be treated immediately after birth and this can be lifesaving. Also, the delivery may be done at a place where facilities exist for immediate treatment of these conditions.
