AB  - Invasive  prenatal  diagnosis  allows  vital  details  to  be  obtained  regarding  the  fetus  that  can  include  genetic,  biochemical,  or  physiologic  data.  This  chapter  describes  amniocentesis,  chorionic  villus  sampling  (CVS),  and  fetal  blood  sampling  (FBS),  which  are  the  most  frequently  used  invasive  techniques  to  obtain  this  information.  Most  perinatal  centers  have  the  technical  expertise  to  perform  all  of  these  procedures  and  to  select  the  best  method  for  each  clinical  scenario.  However,  certain  conditions  meriting  specialized  techniques  may  require  referral  to  a  fetal  center.
