Amniocentesis

Question
Is always tested for CF when doing an amniocentesis [In Germany]?
Answer
Dear questioner,
No, this is not tested automatically [in Germany; in other European countries this may be different], when doing amniocentesis mainly the distribution of chromosomes is investigated. CF has to be ordered extra (depending on the risk). Best regards, Dr. Anja-Undine Stücker
