Recently, I am preparing to go to the hospital for prenatal examination. Could you please advise whether it is necessary to undergo nuchal translucency (NT) measurement, three-dimensional fetal echocardiography, and a comprehensive obstetric ultrasound examination?

Dr. Liu Xiuyan
It is recommended that pregnant women attend every prenatal examination. Each prenatal visit serves as a critical screening step to assess the fetus’s health status—enabling early detection of congenital abnormalities or fetal malformations and facilitating timely decision-making. This helps ensure healthy conception and optimal fetal development. During pregnancy, adequate maternal nutrition must be maintained, and prolonged sitting should be avoided. Pregnant women may engage in appropriate physical activity according to their individual health condition.
