What is NIPT?

NIPT is a screening test that analyzes small fragments of fetal DNA circulating in the mother's blood. It is usually done after 10 o'clock week of pregnancy and is checked for chromosomal abnormalities such as Down's syndrome (trisomy 21), Edwards syndrome (trisomy 18) and Patau syndrome (trisomy 13).
