What is PRENATAL TEST (ALPHA-FETO PROTEIN,AMNIOCENTESIS, CHORIONIC VILLUS SAMPLING)?
These prenatal tests measure different things to check fetal health. Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a protein made by the fetus and measured in the mother's blood. It is one of the most commonly ordered blood tests worldwide and plays a key role in both preventive screening and the investigation of liver disease.
What does PRENATAL TEST (ALPHA-FETO PROTEIN,AMNIOCENTESIS, CHORIONIC VILLUS SAMPLING) measure?
Amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS) collect fetal cells or placental tissue for chromosome and gene testing. AFP is a screening test for neural tube defects and some chromosomal problems. CVS and amniocentesis can give a definite diagnosis of genetic disorders. Doctors use AFP first to screen and offer CVS or amniocentesis if results are abnormal or if pregnancy is high risk.
What symptoms suggest PRENATAL TEST (ALPHA-FETO PROTEIN,AMNIOCENTESIS, CHORIONIC VILLUS SAMPLING) may be needed?

Mildly elevated ALT or AST (2–3× normal): fatty liver, obesity, or medication effect , often reversible. Moderately elevated (3–10×): active viral hepatitis or drug toxicity , requires urgent investigation. Severely elevated (>10×): acute liver injury , a medical emergency. High bilirubin: liver processing failure, bile duct obstruction, or haemolysis. Low albumin: significant loss of liver synthetic function, seen in advanced cirrhosis or malnutrition.
How often should PRENATAL TEST (ALPHA-FETO PROTEIN,AMNIOCENTESIS, CHORIONIC VILLUS SAMPLING) be repeated?
Adults with no liver risk factors and a previously normal result: annually. Patients with NAFLD or treated hepatitis: every 6 months.
