The prenatal diagnosis is the branch of medicine and in particular of ' obstetrics, studying and applying the techniques reveal the normal or the presence of diseases of various kinds, in the fetus . All techniques of prenatal diagnostics are performed during pregnancy and can be invasive or not.
should be noted first that for all, without distinction, there is a certain risk of having a child destined to suffer from a genetic disease: it is exactly the "standard-risk (around 4% for each pregnancy). For those who have instead - or had - a relative with a genetic disease, it is justified to ask the question most of that risk, which for some people, after consulting, may be negligible, while for others it may be by no means negligible or even higher.
typically perform laboratory tests (today DNA analysis almost always) to exclude certain risks and help identify which family members are carriers of the genetic defect - perhaps without showing any disease - and so to understand the mode of transmission of the defective gene through the generations of the family in question.
As already noted, in recent years there has been a dramatic breakthroughs in the field of DNA analysis. It is therefore possible that a method is currently not available yesterday it is today and that what now seems difficult to solve tomorrow be easy to clarify.
Among the most well-known invasive methods, the ' amniocentesis is the technique of removal of fluids a day most exploited today to highlight the possible presence of disease chromosome in the fetus but also infections and genetic diseases such as thalassemia , cystic fibrosis, hemophilia , spina bifida, albinism . Amniocentesis involves taking a number of amniotic fluid that is then analyzed. The fetal cells suspended in the liquid collected allow us to reconstruct the chromosome map of fetus and then highlight the "normality. Genetic testing, however, are not able to recognize the physical or mental by the interaction of the unborn child among multiple genes and environment. The amniotic fluid other types of analysis are possible, more or less complex.
is in this context Kriagen offers its innovative screening test, aimed at professionals and individuals in need of a center that specializes in molecular genetics to prenatal diagnosis with the professionalism, speed and safety on the analysis performed.
The result of the test is given to the person who must undergo a medical specialist, who can explain it.
