The test helps to detect chromosomal abnormalities such as Down syndrome, Edwards syndrome, Patau syndrome, and Turner syndrome, among others.

How is Prenatal Diagnostic Screening by Karyotyping + FISH done?

The procedure involves obtaining a sample of the amniotic fluid or chorionic villus sampling. The sample is then sent to the laboratory for analysis. The fetal cells are cultured and harvested, and the chromosomes are analyzed using a technique called karyotyping. This helps to detect any chromosomal abnormalities. Additionally, a technique called FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization) is used to detect specific chromosomal abnormalities such as trisomy 13, 18, 21, X and Y.

What are the symptoms of chromosomal abnormalities?

Some of the symptoms of chromosomal abnormalities include:

• Abnormal facial features
• Developmental delays
• Heart defects
• Intellectual disability
• Low birth weight
• Muscle weakness
• Poor growth
