BackgroundAmniocentesis is an important procedure for antenatal diagnosis but requires stereotactic skill acquisition that may be facilitated by the use of a model.TechniqueA model using a gelatin mold with “targets” within is created. The model is used to facilitate development of stereotactic skills and to demonstrate technique principles for ultrasound-guided amniocentesis.ExperienceThe model has been incorporated into an educational program for antenatal diagnosis within a residency and provides a reasonable simulation of clinical features important in learning genetic amniocentesis.ConclusionThe use of this model augments the learning of important skills needed for ultrasound-guided amniocentesis.
