Dual Marker test report says that First trimester detection rate - Health and Fitness

Dual Marker test report says that First trimester detection rate of Down syndrome is upto 70 % with a false positive rate

of 5%. A combination of Nuchal translucency, Nasal bone visualization and biochemical

tests (Combined test) increases the detection rate of Down syndrome to 90% at the same

false positive rate.

This should be always correlated with the scan because if nasal bone is not visualised or if partial visualised then falls rate of predicting a down syndrome increase with all the there are disturbances in ultrasound as well taking that in accordance it is noted that there can be a slide false positive which is not exactly positive because when we further go for scans in conjunction with your blood reports which state the markers then the picture is pretty clear right now you have not mentioned your current weeks of pregnancy also you have not mentioned the NT scan values so please mention this and also upload your scan report
