Summary

This study looks at whether a new, non-invasive blood test using next-generation sequencing can replace current methods for diagnosing severe genetic diseases in unborn babies. The test analyzes fetal DNA from the mother's blood, avoiding the need for invasive procedures like amniocentesis. Researchers will compare the costs and benefits of this new approach in 300 couples at risk of passing on a serious genetic condition.
