Our PGT service tests for genetic abnormalities in embryos prior to implantation. By analysing the genetic makeup of embryos, the clinic is able to preferentially select chromosomally healthy embryos for transfer. We offer PGT testing for the detection of embryos with an abnormal number of chromosomes (PGT-A), as well as testing embryos for a known familial genetic condition (PGT-M) or structural rearrangement (PGT-SR).
Utilise our advanced NIPT screening as a valuable resource for the non-invasive detection of chromosomal irregularities, including Down syndrome, Edwards syndrome, and Patau syndrome in the unborn child. Avail a complimentary genetic counselling session from our in-house expert if your TriScreen NIPT results indicate a high risk, allowing you to explore the implications and discuss available options and next steps.
POCScreen is a comprehensive genome-wide test that analyses the tissue from a pregnancy loss to determine if the loss is due to a chromosomal abnormality. The POCScreen test provides information about the possible cause of the pregnancy loss. The screening also provides insights into future reproductive planning.
The services are designed to give you and your patients with valuable insights into fertility health, to optimise the chances of a successful pregnancy, and reduce the risk of genetic conditions.
