Delayed or no testing has led to undetected malformations in the majority of aborted fetuses in Pune district, according to officials. The district medical board has allowed termination of pregnancies beyond 24 weeks due to substantial fetal anomalies, but doctors say the delayed detection leaves no opportunity for treatment. Tests such as ultrasounds and cardiac anomaly tests are crucial for early detection.
