Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing (NIPT): Reliability, Challenges, and Future Directions
Diagnostics, 2023 Non-invasive prenatal testing was first discovered in 1988; it was primarily thought to be able to detect common aneuploidies, such as Patau syndrome (T13), Edward Syndrome (T18), and Down syndrome (T21).

Controversies in implementing non‐invasive prenatal testing in a public antenatal care program
Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 2022 Women's autonomy and an inclusive society for all individuals are highly valued in Norway. The Norwegian Biotechnology Act changed in 2020 allowing first‐trimester screening and cell‐free DNA for common trisomies to all pregnant women.

Non‐invasive prenatal testing in the management of twin pregnancies [PDF]
Prenatal Diagnosis, 2021 AbstractTwin pregnancies are common and associated with pregnancy complications and adverse outcomes. Prenatal clinical management is intensive and has been hampered by inferior screening and less acceptable invasive testing. For aneuploidy screening, meta‐analyses show that non‐invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) through analysis of cell‐free DNA (cf‐DNA)

Testing Times: The Social Life of Non-invasive Prenatal Testing [PDF]
Science, Technology and Society, 2020 Non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) is a genomic technology used to predict the chance of a foetus having a genetic condition. Despite the immediacy of this technology’s integration into clinical practice, there is a dearth of evidence outlining how both patients and professionals experience NIPT on the ground.
