For pregnant women who are having their first pregnancy, they certainly don't know much about what items need to be checked during the prenatal check-up. Of course, they don't know what the NT test is and what its cost is. In fact, the NT test is a good way to assess whether the fetus has Down syndrome. The precise theory is that this is a test to rule out abnormalities. It is generally recommended to do this test around 11 to 14 weeks of pregnancy. It will be meaningless if you do it later. So, how much does it cost to do an NT scan? First of all, the NT test refers to the nuchal translucency, which is done by B-ultrasound to observe the thicker area of the nuchal translucency of the baby to see if it exceeds the standard. If it exceeds the standard, it means that the baby has a chromosomal abnormality and may suffer from a chromosomal disease, which requires further diagnosis through Down screening or amniocentesis. Therefore, the purpose of NT testing is to diagnose sex chromosome disorders in the early stages of pregnancy and to detect fetal abnormalities caused by various reasons. It is just a basic screening during pregnancy. If the test results are normal, it does not mean that the baby is necessarily healthy. Regular prenatal check-ups are still needed to promptly understand the baby's growth and development. In addition, the NT test needs to be performed at the appropriate week of pregnancy, not too early or too late. Testing too early will result in the invisible translucency layer, and testing too late will result in the translucency layer disappearing. It is worth mentioning that the NT test is a general ultrasound test, and the price is about 100 to 200 yuan. The prices in different regions may also vary. If you choose a large hospital, because there are more advanced examination equipment and professional doctors, the price may be more expensive than small and medium-sized hospitals or private hospitals. In addition, general hospital outpatient clinics can reimburse expenses. Some pregnant women who have purchased insurance can claim reimbursement after the NT test. The actual amount of reimbursement is different for each hospital outpatient clinic. It only requires the examination to be within the scope required by maternity insurance, otherwise the expenses cannot be reimbursed. It's not hard to see. The cost of an NT examination is between 100 and 200 yuan. The actual cost is different in each hospital and the charging standards also vary. Doing NT examination is a manifestation of responsibility for the baby and even the whole family. It can detect high-risk patients with Down syndrome as early as possible, facilitate further diagnosis, and also reduce the fertility rate of Down syndrome patients. However, you must pay attention to go to a reliable hospital for the examination. Although the cost will be a little more expensive, it will be safer and more secure. |
