Additional description or bio about me:

I have extensive experience in OB/GYN ultrasound .I have been working with fetomaternal consultants during the last 5 years , Since then ,patients of high risk pregnancies are referred to me for the specific scans (11-13 wks ) (16-23 wks ) and patients who are referred from other hospitals in the region with suspicion of fetal abnormalities .
A good number of pregnant women were found to have abnormal first trimester scan and amniocentesis was performed to confirm the diagnosis of chromosomal abnormalities ,as well as early neural tube defects were discovered .I perform early detailed scan for the second trimester which make me exposed to large number of patients and diagnose multiple fetal abnormalities such as neural tube defects , facial defects ,cardiac and thoracic abnormalities , GI and renal anomalies ,skeletal deformities, and placental and cord abnormalities.
I diagnose twin to twin transfusion syndrome as early as 19-20 wks and was involved in amnioreduction for the recipient fetus which lead to successful pregnancies and healthy twins.
I am exposed to good numbers of multiple pregnancies (Triplets and Quadraplets ) as we have the largest IVF center in the region.
I am involved in ultrasound guidance for the invasive procedures such as( amniocentesis ,blood transfusion ,decompression ….) with the feto maternal consultants .I have worked with Dr. Bernd Wittmann (a perinatologist ) for almost 4 years ,and working with Dr.Adnan Ashour (fetomaternal consultant ) for more than 4 years up to now.
