متن کاملNoninvasive prenatal testing: the future is now.

Given the well-recognized association between increasing maternal age and trisomy,1-3 the primary utilization of prenatal testing has been by older mothers. This has drastically reduced the incid...
متن کاملRefining noninvasive prenatal diagnosis with single-molecule next-generation sequencing.
The gradual elimination of risky procedures used to sample fetal material for prenatal diagnosis has been an important objective in medicine. It is often stated that more fetuses are lost due to such invasive procedures (amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling) than are identified as carrying a chromosomal abnormality. Noninvasive prenatal diagnosis (NIPD) has developed substantially since ...
