The Fetal Care Centre (FCC) is the nerve centre under the Division of Maternal Fetal Medicine. It provides a comprehensive range of services for screening, diagnosis, counselling and management of fetal abnormalities during pregnancy. The centre is equipped with Diagnostic Ultrasound Machines, including machines with 3D/4D capabilities.

The FCC aims to enhance and strengthen our Women's Centre as a one-stop service centre. Previously known as the Antenatal Diagnostic Centre (ADC), the FCC comprises 2 clinics to better meet the needs of our subsidised and private patients.

Ultrasound scanning in FCC is performed by a team of dedicated Ultrasonographers, each with more than 12 years of experience in Prenatal Ultrasonography. Our Senior Consultants take turns to supervise and provide expert advice whenever required. The centre aims to provide parents and obstetrics caregivers with knowledge to make informed decisions about your pregnancy.

The FCC developed two new tests for faster and early detection of Down’s Syndrome. The first test combines ultrasound with maternal blood test and is performed at 12 weeks of pregnancy to calculate the risk of Down’s Syndrome. Within 24 hours, the couple will know if their child is at higher or lower risk of Down’s Syndrome.

The second test is the Fluorescence In-Situ Hybridisation (FISH) Next Day test where couples can perform a diagnostic test to determine if their child is having Down’s Syndrome. Typically, pregnant women can choose to do chorion villus sampling or amniocentesis combined with FISH test. The laboratory results is usually available within 48 hours. These tests are now conveniently integrated in FCC.
