77019-8
LaboratoryNoninvasive prenatal fetal 18 and 21 aneuploidy panel - Plasma cell-free DNA by Sequencing
Definition
This term was created for, but is not limited in use to, Sequenom Laboratories' VisibiliT panel, which analyzes circulating cell-free DNA extracted from maternal plasma using whole genome sequencing to determine the risk for fetal chromosome 18 and 21 aneuploidies. VisibiliT is indicated for use in pregnant women with average risk for fetal chromosomal aneuploidy.
