Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS) Test in Gwalior
What is Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS)?
A Fetal Amniocentesis Test in Gwalior is a diagnostic procedure performed during the second trimester of pregnancy.
During the test, a small sample of amniotic fluid is carefully taken from the amniotic sac — the fluid-filled sac that surrounds the baby in the uterus. This fluid contains the baby’s shed cells, which are then analyzed to detect chromosomal or genetic abnormalities.
What is the Purpose of Chorionic Villus Sampling?
CVS is recommended in the following situations:
Family history of genetic disorders, chromosomal abnormalities, or metabolic conditions
Detection of structural abnormalities in the fetus via ultrasound
Higher risk of chromosomal disorders, such as Down syndrome, identified through prenatal screening
Other medical indications as advised by your doctor
The choice to undergo CVS is completely voluntary. At Aarush Diagnostic Center, we provide evidence-based guidance, allowing parents to make an informed decision after understanding the benefits and risks of the procedure.
