Medicolegal Aspects of Fetal Medicine: Risks, Rights and Responsibilities in Fetal Medicine explores the intersection of fetal medicine, ethics, and law, addressing the medicolegal challenges that arise across prenatal diagnosis and fetal intervention. Structured across 11 chapters, it moves from the foundations of fetal medicine and the legal frameworks that govern it through to consent, ethical dilemmas, high-risk pregnancy management, professional liability, and the emerging digital-era vulnerabilities reshaping the field.

The text integrates evolving medical advancements with ethical principles and Indian legal frameworks, including the PCPNDT Act, the MTP Act, telemedicine guidelines, and landmark constitutional judgments affecting reproductive and fetal care - giving clinicians and legal professionals a shared reference point for safe, accountable practice.

Written to be practical and evidence-based rather than purely theoretical, the book promotes responsible, patient-centred decision-making at every stage of fetal medicine practice.


  • Bridges medicine and law: connects clinical fetal medicine practice directly to the Indian legal frameworks that govern it, rather than treating them separately.
  • Reduces medicolegal risk: dedicated chapters on documentation, communication, and professional liability help practitioners protect themselves and their patients.
  • Keeps pace with a changing field: covers emerging trends including AI in healthcare, telemedicine, and digital vulnerabilities in fetal medicine.
  • Supports ethical decision-making: works through real ethical dilemmas in prenatal screening, high-risk pregnancy management, and in-utero intervention.

Key Features:

  • 11 chapters spanning fetal medicine fundamentals, legal frameworks, consent, ethics, and emerging challenges.
  • Direct integration of the PCPNDT Act, MTP Act, telemedicine guidelines, and constitutional judgments into clinical discussion.
  • Written by a fetal medicine specialist holding a postgraduate diploma in medicolegal systems (PGDMLS).
  • Addresses both established concerns (informed consent, high-risk pregnancy) and emerging ones (AI, digital vulnerabilities).
  • Designed as a shared reference for clinicians, legal professionals, ethicists, and hospital administrators alike.
