If youv have not got a double marker test done, you can get a quadruple marker test done at 16-18weeks along with a level 2 anomaly scan.

It's always better to do a double marker test.
We take the combined result of NT scan and double marker test.
But it should be done before 13weeks .

It is absolutely necessary to take the double marker test
It is for mental well being of the baby
The ultrasound only establishes the structural well being
