Amniocentesis Test in Bangalore

Amniocentesis
An amniocentesis test in Bangalore is a prenatal test in which a small amount of amniotic fluid is removed from the sac surrounding the fetus for testing. The sample of amniotic fluid (less than one ounce) is removed through a fine needle inserted into the uterus through the abdomen, under ultrasound guidance.
