Prenatal Genetic Testing helps in understanding the health of the baby while still in the womb. Mainly, two types of tests are carried out—screening tests and diagnostic tests. Prenatal screening tests help in identifying birth defects, which are mostly genetic disorders. These tests include blood tests, ultrasound and prenatal cell-free DNA screening. If the screening tests indicate a possible disorder, a diagnostic test, which probes deeper on the condition, is carried out. How are these tests carried out? In which semesters are these tests carried out? What is expected of these tests? Are there any drawbacks or dangers involved? How safe are they and are they deemed optional or compulsory? Know about all these through this elaborate presentation. Make sure to download the resource to read it fully. You can also use the PPT to explain this topic to others, whether they are your fellow students or your patients.
