Patient attitudes and preferences about expanded noninvasive prenatal testing [PDF]
Introduction: Noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) using cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is typically carried out to screen for common fetal chromosomal anomalies, with the option to screen for a wider range of chromosomal changes (expanded NIPT) becoming ...

Factors Affecting the Fetal Fraction in Noninvasive Prenatal Screening: A Review
A paradigm shift in noninvasive prenatal screening has been made with the discovery of cell-free fetal DNA in maternal plasma. Noninvasive prenatal screening is primarily used to screen for fetal aneuploidies, and has been used globally.

Cell-based noninvasive prenatal testing (cbNIPT) detects pathogenic copy number variations
In two cases, cell‐based noninvasive prenatal testing (cbNIPT) detected pathogenic copy number variations (CNVs) in the fetal genome. cbNIPT may potentially be an improved noninvasive alternative for the detection of smaller CNVs.

Relevance of Invasive Testing in Era of Non-Invasive Testing for Prenatal Chromosomal Abnormalities
Prenatal screening for chromosomal abnormalities has two components i.e. prenatal screening (maternal serum screening and cell-free fetal DNA screening) and prenatal diagnosis (chorionic villus sampling, amniocentesis, and cordocentesis).
