How to diagnose fetal biliary atresia?

Patient's question:

Hello, doctor. My child is only a few years old this year. I always find that the baby's development is not normal, and I always feel that the baby keeps moving inside the stomach. I would like to ask the doctor how to confirm fetal biliary atresia?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there are many tests for detecting fetal biliary atresia. Generally, 4D color Doppler ultrasound can perform preliminary screening for abnormalities. It is best to undergo amniocentesis. The doctor recommends taking umbilical cord blood to test liver function. You must go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible, and regular prenatal check-ups are very important. For the condition of fetal biliary atresia, ultrasound can be performed, which can detect it. Usually, it is checked after the seventh month of pregnancy.
