NIPT for Trisomy 21 Detection with NGS Technology
Explore how Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing (NIPT) using cell-free fetal DNA and Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) measures chromosome 21 sequences to detect Trisomy 21, aiding in fetal and maternal health assessment. Learn about the NIPT workflow, Z-score calculation, unique chromosome 21 sequences, and differentiation between Euploids and Trisomy 21 cases based on research studies by Chiu R.W.K. and Lo et al.
