Germline Genes Mutations Associated with Pediatric Cancer Predisposition
The prevalence and spectrum of predisposing mutations among children and adolescents with cancer are largely unknown, but knowledge of such mutations may improve the understanding of tumorigenesis, direct patient care, and enable genetic counseling of patients and families. More...06 Dec 2015
Noninvasive Prenatal Technique Detects Subchromosomal Abnormalities
Noninvasive prenatal testing using sequencing of fetal cell-free DNA from maternal plasma has allowed accurate prenatal diagnosis of aneuploidy without requirement of an invasive procedure and this approach has gained increasing clinical acceptance. More...24 Nov 2015
Blood Test Increases Accuracy in Prenatal Testing
A simple, accurate and low risk blood test can detect fetal blood group, sex, and genetic conditions in unborn babies and the DNA test is inexpensive and is noninvasive, as opposed to the traditional amniocentesis test that involves a needle and carries a minor risk of miscarriage.
