THE BENEFITS OF NON-INVASIVE PRENATAL TESTING

We look at how new developments in prenatal testing can help parents to be as prepared as possible.

Expecting a child is one of the most beautiful experiences in life. However, it can spark a number of concerns. Many women seek answers to their worries through prenatal genetic testing, but some choose not to do so because these tests come with risks. Fortunately, expectant parents now have a safer and more accessible alternative to traditional prenatal testing, with the option of non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). This cutting-edge technology, available at the National Reference Laboratory, an M42 company, allows healthcare providers to screen for a wide range of conditions in a noninvasive manner, early on in your pregnancy.
