Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers the quadruple marker test in Sanand to screen for certain birth defects in a foetus.
Overview of Quadruple Marker Test
A quadruple marker test is done to determine whether a developing foetus is at risk for certain birth defects or not. This test is done between 16-20 weeks (second trimester) of pregnancy. Four markers evaluated in the quadruple marker test are-
- Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), a hormone released by placental cell
- Unconjugated estriol- produced by the foetus and placenta
- Alpha-fetoprotein- produced by the foetus’s liver
- Inhibin A- produced by the placenta
Book a quadruple marker test near you to diagnose the possibility of certain congenital defects in your developing baby.
Why and When Is a Quadruple Marker Test Done?
A quadruple marker test is done during the second trimester of pregnancy to assess the risk for certain congenital birth defects in the developing foetus. A normal baby has 22 pairs plus one pair of sex chromosomes. In a trisomy, there is an extra chromosome present. This extra chromosome may be either at chromosome- number 21 (Downs’ Syndrome), number 18 (Edward’s syndrome) or number 13 (Patau’s syndrome).
Although the quadruple marker test is recommended for all pregnant women, your doctor may recommend a quadruple marker test in pregnancy if-
- Your age is 35 or more
- Suffered from viral infection during pregnancy
- Exposed to high radiation doses
- You have a family history of congenital disease (birth defects)
- Exposed to harmful medicine/drugs during pregnancy
Sterling Accuris offers a reliable quadruple marker test in Sanand with timely reports.

| HCG (mIU/mL) | Non Pregnant | <5.0, |
| Early Pregnancy | 5-25 | |
| Pregnant Women | :>25 | |
| Weeks post(LMP) | ||
| 1-10 | 202- 231000 | |

The quadruple marker test also uses an NT scan which utilizes ultrasound technology, which together with the biochemical tests allows doctors to perform a risk assessment of chromosomal abnormalities such as Down syndrome that may exist in the developing fetus.
Females that have a risk assessment of 1:250 of trisomy are considered to be screen-positive, with further confirmatory testing required. Risk assessment can be divided into low, intermediate and high risk for trisomy.
Causes for abnormal quadruple marker test
- Down syndrome (trisomy 21)
- Edward syndrome (trisomy 18)
- Turner syndrome
- Spina bifida (spinal defect)
- Heart defect
- Absence of brain or skull part (anencephaly)
- Death of foetus
