NIPT offers several advantages over traditional prenatal screening methods:
- Safety: Since it is non-invasive, there is no risk of miscarriage or other complications associated with invasive procedures. - Accuracy: NIPT has a high detection rate for certain chromosomal abnormalities, with a low false-positive rate. - Early Detection: NIPT can be performed as early as the 10th week of pregnancy, providing early reassurance or diagnosis.
