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.

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.
