What is Panorama Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing?
Panorama™, the most ordered NIPT, can assess conditions that can affect your baby’s health by doing a simple blood draw on you. A pregnant person’s blood contains DNA from them and also from their baby’s placenta. Panorama™ NIPT is a blood test performed during pregnancy that looks at the placental DNA to see if your baby has a high or low chance of having certain chromosomal conditions that could affect its health, along with providing your baby’s sex. Panorama™ delivers a personalized risk report to you and your clinician.
What is Horizon carrier screening?
It is common for people to be carriers of at least one genetic condition. Most carriers are healthy with no family history, but they are at risk of passing on a genetic condition to their child. Horizon carrier screening is a genetic test performed before or during pregnancy that identifies if you carry a gene with a change, or variant, that can impact your child.
