Fetal Cell Analysis From Maternal Blood

December 20, 2022 updated by: Menarini Biomarkers Singapore

Validation of a Cell-Based Technology for Non-Invasive-Prenatal-Diagnosis (CB-NIPD) Using Circulating Whole Fetal Cells From Maternal Peripheral Blood.

The aim of this clinical study is the evaluation of clinical performance of a cell-based non-invasive test technology for fetal aneuploidies and segmental imbalances detection in a high-risk pregnancies population.
