New blood test aims for more accurate pregnancy screening

NCT ID NCT03375359

Summary

This study tested a new screening method for pregnant women to detect certain genetic conditions in the fetus. Researchers compared a blood test that analyzes fetal DNA with the standard ultrasound and blood marker screening. The goal was to see if the new method could reduce false alarms while maintaining high detection rates for conditions like Down syndrome.
