Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
A nuchal translucency of 6.5mm at 15 weeks pregnancy is slightly more than normal. The chances of having a chromosomal defect in the baby are there. More detailed tests are needed to find out the exact chances of having an anomaly.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. You can consult me again directly through my profile URL http://bit.ly/Dr-Rakhi-Tayal
