HC Deb 13 December 1982 vol 34 cc32-3W
Dr. Roger Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services at which centres in the United Kingdom facilities for radioimmunological assay of early pregnancies are available for detecting women who would be at risk of spontaneous abortion or have abnormally sited pregnancies.

Mr. Geoffrey Finsberg

This information is not available centrally, but radioimmunological assay for the early diagnosis of pregnancy is readily available through the NHS pathology service, where a test is considered to be clinically appropriate.
