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.
