Hi... Echogenic intracardiac focus (EIF) is a small bright spot seen in the baby's heart on an ultrasound exam. This is thought to represent mineralization, or small deposits of calcium, in the muscle of the heart. EIFs are found in about 3–5% of normal pregnancies and cause no health problems.

Hi there, how is everything? Hope things are OK with you and baby. I have the same too during 20th week scan.

Thanks mummy!

It usually wouldn’t be a problem!

Not heard of...

Is it found on a detailed scan? Are there multiple found?
