UCSF Prenatal Diagnostic Center
At the our center we offer comprehensive counseling, screening and testing for fetal conditions. The decision to use these services belongs exclusively to each pregnant individual and family.
The role of our counselors is to provide the information and support that patients need to make the choices that are right for them.
Diagnostic Testing
Diagnostic tests involve taking a sample from a pregnancy in order to test for chromosome and genetic conditions. These tests look for more conditions than screening and can give more certainty. Patients may choose a diagnostic test
to get more information about the health of their pregnancy. In this video we will discuss diagnostic test options available in pregnancy.
