Although often used interchangeably, "wrongful birth" and "wrongful life" are distinct legal concepts. Wrongful birth involves the physician's duty to impart to expectant parents information about potential fetal defects. Wrongful life suits reflect the child's right to recovery for life-long suffering as a result of the physician's inadequate pre- or peri-natal care. Modern medical imaging techniques can play a major role in the diagnosis of interuterine malformations; this article explores the legal duties which may be imposed upon physicians who interpret such tests.
