Chromosomal disorders arise from errors in cell division and many are detected during prenatal development. Prenatal genomic screening techniques involve invasive methods such as chorionic villus sampling and amniocentesis. In this feature, current invasive techniques for genetic screening will be examined in relation to the development of non-invasive prenatal technology. As cell-free fetal DNA methods continue to develop and be integrated into clinical practice, there is an opportunity for improvement in the detection and reliability of the screening process. In clinic, there are disparities between clinicians and patients surrounding both understanding of the processes and the discussion on the technique limitations. Non-invasive methods are continually being improved for detecting genetic disorders through the use of cell-free fetal DNA, and with these advancements, these processes will become safe, cost-effective, and reliable for pregnant mothers when undergoing genetic screening and counselling.

I discuss ethical issues relating to interventions other than intracranial surgery and psychopharmacology for psychiatric disorders. I question the distinction between “invasive” and “non-invasive” techniques applying electrical stimulation to the brain, arguing that this should be replaced by a distinction between more and less invasive techniques. I discuss electroconvulsive therapy (ECT); it can be a relatively safe and effective treatment for some patients with depression. I consider transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and transcranial current stimulation (tCS); the classification of these techniques as non-invasive may lead to underestimation of their risks. I discuss how placebos can justifiably be prescribed non-deceptively and even deceptively in clinical settings. An analysis of neurofeedback as the neuromodulating technique most likely to promote autonomy/control for some conditions follows. Finally, I examine biomarkers identified through genetic screening and neuroimaging; they might contribute to more accurate prediction and diagnosis, more effective treatment, and possibly prevention of psychiatric disorders.
