Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing

[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”4061″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″ el_class=”investColRightLarge”][vc_column_text]Known as an NIPT investigation, this test is offered as an investigation for Down’s syndrome and will determine, with high accuracy, either a ‘low risk’ or ‘high risk’ diagnosis. This test does not involve any invasive procedures, just a simple maternal blood test:

•   Performed from 10 weeks of pregnancy.

A NIPT test will screen for Chromosomes 13,18,21, X and Y. You will be offered genetic counseling if the results of this test are positive or ‘ high risk’.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”View Brochure” style=”flat” shape=”round” color=”info” link=”url:%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2017%2F12%2FNon-invasive-Prenatal-screening-Brochure.pdf||target:%20_blank|”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
