Introduction
BGI VISTA™ Chromosome Sequencing uses NGS-based low coverage whole genome sequencing (WGS) to help detect chromosome abnormalities before or during pregnancy. Testing can be performed on a variety of different sample types.
BGI VISTA™ Chromosome Sequencing is especially suitable for:
- Individuals or couples who want to confirm the high-risk screening test results, such as Maternal Serum Screening (MSS) or Non-invasive Prenatal Testing (NIPT)
- Individuals or couples who have suffered from repeated miscarriage or who have had a child who suffers from a genetic condition
- Individuals or couples who have had abnormal ultrasonography results, but with negative CGH, SNP results
- Anyone suspected of belonging to a population which is at higher risk of chromosomal abnormality or patients who want to understand if a chromosome abnormality was a factor in a miscarriage
TA TIME:
12 working days
SAMPLE:
Abortion Tissue, Core Blood (Gestation week >12 weeks), Peripheral Blood, DNA and Amniotic Fluid.
TECHNOLOGY:
Low coverage WGS
