Prenatal Screening
Prenatal Screening
With NIPT (Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing)
Otogenetics-based prenatal screening is a non-invasive technique that examines chromosomes using maternal whole blood samples. This method offers precise and thorough carrier screening for both inherited cancer and prenatal conditions, while also providing non-invasive prenatal testing for expectant mothers.
This test helps determine the risk that a baby will be born with specific genetic abnormalities and is performed through a blood test that examines fragments of DNA in the mother's blood, which originate from the placenta.
There is no risk to the mother or baby!
Otogenetics in genetic testing collaborates with some of the world's leading researchers, including the NIH, MIT, and Harvard University.
Who is a good candidate?
- All expecting mothers, because genetic abnormalities are not all hereditary, but can occur after conception
- Anyone with a family history of genetic abnormalities
(Mother or Father of the baby)
- Anyone exposed to toxins during their pregnancy
