The hospital is expanding its services to high-risk expecting moms by offering special programs in its Antenatal Testing Unit (ATU). The ATU will feature early screenings for mothers in the first 11 to 13 weeks and can detect 40 percent of heart defects, other anomalies, and perinatal risks. Also, fetal echocardiograms will allow a more intensive, detailed study of a baby's heart as opposed to traditional pregnancy ultrasounds performed by obstetricians. (from Hudson Reporter)
