The triple screening measures the amounts of three substances in a pregnant woman's blood: alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and estriol (uE3). These tests are also called the maternal serum triple test the expanded AFP test the AFP plus test or the multiple marker screening test.
The amounts of these substances help you to find out the chance that your baby has certain birth defects such as Down syndrome spina bifida or anencephaly.
These tests can't show for sure that your baby has a birth defect. You would need a diagnostic test called amniocentesis to find out for sure if there is a problem.
The triple or quad screening is usually done at 16 to 20 weeks of pregnancy
Dual/double marker screening is done between 10 to 13 week of gestation
