NT 2.1mm is below 95th pct or 98th pct ?
“12 w 2 d pregnancy: NT 2.1 mm, nasal bone 2.2 mm & normal ductus venosus – NIPT or CVS?”
Description
“My wife is 12 w 2 d pregnant. Recent NT scan showed:
CRL 59 mm
NT 2.1 mm (doctor reports 98th percentile; other charts say <95th)
Nasal bone 2.2 mm present
Ductus venosus flow normal
Heartbeat and all other perameter normal
We’re confused whether to go ahead with a non-invasive prenatal test (NIPT) first or directly opt for CVS. And CT is below 95th pct or 98th pct ? Any guidance on next best step? Thanks!”

Ultrasound findings are perfectly normal go for double marker test
Both double marker and nipt are screening tests
N ipt is expensive but has better sensitivity

Scan report is not la. But always better to do double marker test. It’s nowadays recommended irrespective of the NT scan findings.
Next Steps
Do double market test
