Lieutenant General Ajith Nilakantan, PVSM, Commandant of Army Hospital (Research and Referral), inaugurated a hands-on fetal invasive and therapeutic workshop at the hospital on Friday. The workshop was conducted by the Maternal-Fetal Medicine subdivision of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Army Hospital (R&R) and was attended by 70 civilian delegates and 15 officers of the Armed Forces Medical Services (AFMS).

It included a lecture and demonstration of invasive procedures such as amniocentesis, chorionic villous sampling, cordocentesis, fetal reduction, and intrauterine transfusion. The workshop was followed by hands-on training for all participants using high-fidelity humanoid mannequins.
