NON-INVASIVE
PRENATAL TESTING

A Simple Procedure,
for Simple Peace of Mind

Non-Invasive Prenatal Test (NIPT)

Non-invasive Prenatal Testing or NIPT, involves a simple blood screening procedure to analyse the cell-free DNA to check your baby’s risks for various genetic disorders, including Down Syndrome. 

An NIPT screening cannot determine whether your baby has actually got a chromosomal disorder but is highly accurate on discounting the probability of having a condition and is
97 to 99% accurate for the three most common conditions.

Non-invasive prenatal services at Feto Maternal & GenetYX Center, including ultrasound and genetic screening.

Once the results of the NIPT are back, the doctor will pair them with the results of the first-trimester or nuchal translucency screening to determine whether further testing is needed.

​Further diagnostic tests such as genetic tests can analyse the baby’s own genetic material, collected from the amniotic fluid or placenta, and give a 99.9% certainty as to whether your baby has any chromosome abnormalities.
