What Each Prenatal Screening Test Includes
Double Marker or Dual Marker Test
Includes: Free β-hCG and Pregnancy-Associated Plasma Protein-A (PAPP-A).
The laboratory combines the marker results with maternal and pregnancy details, including NT scan findings for combined screening, to estimate the chance of conditions such as Down syndrome and Edwards syndrome.
The risk report includes the marker values, multiples of the median (MoM) values and a risk graph.
Double Marker report and test detailsTriple Marker Test
Includes: Alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP), β-hCG and Unconjugated Estriol (uE3).
These results are used with maternal and ultrasound details to calculate the chance of Down syndrome, Edwards syndrome and open neural tube defects. AFP contributes to the assessment of open neural tube defects, including spina bifida.
Triple Marker report and test detailsQuadruple or Quad Marker Test
Includes: The three Triple Marker components plus Inhibin A.
Inhibin A adds information to the second-trimester risk calculation and improves Down syndrome detection. The report also assesses the chance of Edwards syndrome and open neural tube defects.
Quadruple Marker report and test detailsNIPT: Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing
NIPT uses next-generation sequencing to analyze cell-free DNA from the placenta circulating in maternal blood. The offered panel screens for trisomy 21 (Down syndrome), trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome), trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome) and X/Y chromosome aneuploidies.
For the three common trisomies, cell-free DNA testing is the most sensitive and specific screening method. Sample collection involves a blood draw from the mother.
NIPT panel and report detailsUnderstanding screening: These tests estimate the chance of the conditions assessed; they do not provide a confirmatory diagnosis. Your obstetrician interprets the findings with the ultrasound and pregnancy history and advises diagnostic testing, such as CVS or amniocentesis, when needed.
Ultrasound Report and Details to Share Before Collection
- Prescription and latest USG report: Share the prescribed test and complete ultrasound report so the test request and pregnancy stage can be checked.
- NT scan for combined first-trimester screening: This scan is usually performed from 11 weeks to 13 weeks and 6 days. Its nuchal translucency (NT) and crown-rump length (CRL) values are used in the combined calculation. The Double Marker blood-test window and NT scan window are separate.
- Maternal information: Provide the exact date of birth, current weight and the pregnancy or medical history requested on the laboratory’s Test Requisition Form (TRF).
- Pregnancy type: Tell the team about twins, IVF, donor conception or a vanishing twin before collection, so the laboratory can confirm the appropriate testing protocol.
NT scans and other ultrasound examinations are arranged separately at an imaging center; they are not included in these blood-test prices. If you are booking additional blood tests, share the full prescription so any extra preparation can be confirmed.

Questions About Prenatal Screening
How is prenatal chromosomal screening different from an antenatal profile?
An antenatal profile checks the mother’s health during pregnancy, including factors such as anemia, infections and blood sugar. Prenatal chromosomal screening estimates the chance of particular fetal chromosomal conditions. The two types of tests answer different questions and can be prescribed as part of the same pregnancy care plan.
Should I book all four prenatal screening tests?
Usually, one screening approach is chosen according to the pregnancy stage, ultrasound findings and any earlier screening. Booking every test together is unnecessary. Follow the test plan advised by your obstetrician; additional testing is arranged when there is a reason to investigate further.
What does a risk ratio such as 1:100 or 1:1,000 mean?
The ratio expresses the calculated chance of the condition assessed. A result of 1:100 means an estimated one-in-100 chance, or 1%; 1:1,000 means one in 1,000, or 0.1%. A smaller denominator represents a higher estimated chance. The laboratory’s cutoff determines how the result is classified.
Does a low-chance NIPT result replace the pregnancy anatomy scan?
No. NIPT checks the chromosomal conditions included in its panel. The anatomy scan examines the baby’s developing organs and physical structures, including findings that NIPT does not assess. Your obstetrician will schedule the second-trimester anatomy scan, usually at 18–22 weeks, even after a low-chance NIPT result.
