What is Non-invasive G scan
Non-invasive Gscan is a method based on modern DNA technology. Non-invasive Gscan is performed after 10 weeks of pregnancy. It determines whether the child has any genetic abnormalities.
These genetic mutations can be hereditary or occur randomly. Down’s syndrome, which is a more common genetic mutation, causes mental and physical disabilities, and it has been found that this condition is not hereditary and appears randomly.
The Non-Invasive Gscan test can help diagnose many genetic diseases. You can get this test in two ways.
1. Aneuploidy testing
• Down’s syndrome (trisomy 21)
• Edward syndrome (trisomy 18)
• Patau syndrome (trisomy 13)
2. Aneuploidy testing and microdeletion risk testing
