technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of genetic diagnosis of chromosomal variation, in particular to a method for detecting balanced structural variation of fetal chromosomes through free DNA in the peripheral blood of pregnant women. Background technique
[0002] Genetic diseases are an important cause of birth defects and fertility disorders, and pose a serious threat to human health and life. Clinically common genetic diseases include single gene diseases and chromosomal diseases, and chromosomal diseases include abnormal chromosome number and abnormal chromosome structure. For preventing the birth of children with genetic diseases, invasive prenatal diagnosis is still the clinical gold standard, but there is a certain risk of abortion infection. In recent years, with the rapid development of non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT), the risk of genetic diseases in children can be assessed based on the fetal free DNA (cell-free fetal DNA, cffDNA) in the ...
