ABSTRACT
Non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) for fetal aneuploidy detection is increasingly being offered in the clinical setting. Whereas the majority of tests only report fetal trisomies 21, 18 and 13, genome-wide analyses have the potential to detect other fetal, as well as maternal, aneuploidies. In this review, we discuss the technical and clinical advantages and challenges associated with genome-wide cell-free fetal DNA profiling.
