Prospective chromosome analysis of 3429 amniocentesis samples in China using copy number variation sequencing

In a large prospective clinical study, copy number variation sequencing delivered high reliability and accuracy for identifying clinically significant fetal anomalies in prenatal samples. Based on key performance criteria, copy number variation sequencing appears to be a well-suited methodology for first-tier diagnosis of pregnant women in the general population at risk of having a suspected fetal chromosome abnormality.
