Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the fetal heart can be better evaluated by fetal echocardiography.But any investigation can detect upto 80 to 90% of anamolies if present.And a few heart abnormalities might be detected a year after birth.For now may be fetal echocardiography might be helpful.So discuss with your doctor regarding that. Dont worry. Best regards...Dr srilatha
