88572-3
LaboratoryFetal 22q11.2 deletion risk [Interpretation] based on Plasma cell-free DNA by Dosage of chromosome-specific cfDNA Qualitative
Definition
The ordinal risk interpretation (e.g. high risk/low risk or high probability/low probability) of the fetus having a 22q11.2 deletion based on dosage of chromosome specific cell-free DNA (cf DNA) in maternal plasma that contains both fetal and maternal DNA. Results may also be based on the mother's current age, IVF status (self, non-self, or not applicable), and gestational age. This code is based, but not limited in use to, the submitter's test, the Harmony Prenatal Test, a non-invasive prenatal test for screening of fetal aneuploidy as well as the 22q11.2 deletion.
