Jasenka Wagner

Sažetak

Current methods used for prenatal diagnosis can be invasive or noninvasive. Common invasive techniques, like amniocentesis or chorionic villus biopsy, have been used for the last thirty years. During the last twenty years, extensive work in development of noninvasive techniques has been done. General goal of noninvasive methods is to be completely safe and available to all pregnant women. In this review, most commonly used techniques of prenatal diagnosis as well as recent developments in the field are being presented, especially possible application of analysis of cell free fetal DNA from maternal plasma.
