概述

Maternal fetal medicine (MFM) provides routine ultrasound services for all maternity patients as well as specialized care for high-risk pregnancies, fully integrated with your overall obstetrical care.

MFM specialists are obstetrician gynecologists (妇产医院s) who have additional training in ultrasound and the assessment and management of high-risk pregnancies. This additional care complements the care provided by obstetricians and family medicine physicians, and is focused on providing comprehensive assessment and care for the high-risk mother and fetus in order to achieve the optimal outcome for both.
