Hi there
Does anyone know of any clinics in North of England that carry out the combined nasal and nuchal fold scanning. I have heard that it is 95% accurate so am very keen to find out where I can get it done (approaching my big four-oh this year so know that I am high risk) Would be really great to hear from anyone . Thanks, Kathy

I had mine done at:-
Leeds Antenatal Screening Service,

Leeds Screening Centre, Gemini Park, Sheepscar Way, Leeds LS7 3JB
Telephone :(0)113 262 1675
FAX :0)113 262 1658
www.leedsscreeningcentre.co.uk

Check out their website. I had the most expensive (£190) which included blood tests,nuchal fold, nasal bone, heartrate and movement of blood through an organ(sorry cant remember which!!). It is extremely accurate and you get the probabilty results there and then. They also offer a free blood repeat test at 15 weeks if necessary. I found it very reassuring both times.

Had mine done at the Leeds centre too.
It was very good except it turned out I'd got my dates wrong so I had to come back a fortnight later and we ended up paying £240 in total! I would recommend them but you might be able to find somewhere cheaper.

Now pregnant mums can access a network of regulated centres providing high quality pregnancy ultrasound scans including the Nuchal Translucency Scan. See BUMPS Network
