Gender Ultrasound
Are you curious to know if you are expecting a boy/girl? Then you can find out with this ultrasound. If you prefer to be surprised, we will give you a card in a sealed envelope.
We perform the gender scan from about 15 weeks of pregnancy.
This ultrasound is not reimbursed and is therefore at your own expense. You must pay by invoice/bank transfer after the ultrasound.
NIPT
You can opt for the NIPT if you want to find out during the pregnancy whether your child has Down syndrome, Edwards syndrome or Patau syndrome.
People with Down syndrome have an intellectual disability. A person is born with it. In some it is more serious than in others. It is not possible to tell in advance.
Edwards syndrome and Patau syndrome are far less common than Down syndrome. They are very serious conditions. In most cases the child will die before or around birth.
The NIPT can also find other conditions. These are called incidental findings. You choose whether you want to know them. For more information see: https://www.pns.nl/nipt
