Abstract: (2951 Views)

Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is a moderately novel method with an exponential expansion in uses for a wide range of applications. The clinical services of these new techniques will be estimated by the scientist in the field via the newest case studies. Non-invasive detection of cell-free DNA has the potential to impact treatment regimens and clinical protocols. cfDNA will manage the standard of care in transplant medicine, oncology, and cardiovascular disease. This field is appearing as one of the most exciting and promising areas of medicine and other sciences and can make a huge influence on prenatal care. The aim of this review is to present potential and application of Cell-Free DNA in prenatal diagnosis.
