Medilaser Clinic’s Myriam Parra site in Neiva leads a specialized route that detects fetal diseases from pregnancy. The service serves pregnant women from southern Colombia.
The prenatal diagnosis route has operated for one year at the Myriam Parra site. It identifies congenital heart diseases, chromosomal alterations and other fetal malformations using high-resolution ultrasound.
Doctor Natalia Gutiérrez Olaya, gynecologist-obstetrician and maternal-fetal medicine specialist, stated: “Our objective has never been solely to diagnose a disease. What is truly important is that this diagnosis allows changing the pregnancy prognosis”.
Each finding activates a team of perinatologists, geneticists, pediatric cardiologists and neonatologists. Patient Angie Vanessa Calderón said knowing her son Gabriel’s development gives her peace of mind.
