NIPT Norway
NIPT er godkjent i Norge fra 38 år. Yngre kvinner er så langt henvist til prøvetaking i utlandet. Vi har for øyeblikket ikke muligheten til å sende NIPT til / fra Norge. Interesserte har derfor måttet reise til oss i Gøteborg for prøvetaking. Kontakt oss via e-post eller direkte på reservasjonssiden for å avtale tid. Vær oppmerksom på at vi ikke tilbyr andre kontroller eller aktiviteter angående graviditet (eksempel ultralyd, kliniske undersøkelser etc).
Additional information
In addition to the information mentioned above, we can also analyse the presence of gender chromosome anomalies and we can usually also determine the gender of the fetus (if there is just one and not more). Among the gender chromosome anomalies are Turner’s syndrome (XO) and Klinefelter’s syndrome (XXY).
Please note that NIPT is primarily a test to find trisomies and that gender chromosome anomalies can not always be performed due to low levels of fetal DNA. For this reason testing for gender chromosome anomalies and to determine the gender of the fetus if offered without extra cost since we can not guarantee a result.
