Extended NIPT
Pregnant women from 10 weeks gestation wanting the broadest available non-invasive screening, or with a specific indication for microdeletion risk.
- Extended NIPT — Cell-free fetal DNA screening: T21/T18/T13 + select microdeletion syndromes
- Level II Anomaly Scan — Detailed structural ultrasound, non-invasive
- Mandatory Genetic Counseling — Included — not optional, part of how results are safely interpreted
What normal doesn't rule out
a diagnosis — this remains a screening test, not diagnostic, even at the extended level. A positive result requires confirmatory diagnostic testing (fetal karyotyping) before any clinical decision.
Not included
- Couple karyotyping — that's pre-conception (see F5-T2)
- Diagnostic fetal karyotyping — a reflex pathway via the clinician-led Program, not fixed-priced here
Not the right fit if
you're earlier than 10 weeks gestation, or standard NIPT (F6-T3) is sufficient for your situation — discuss with your obstetrician which tier fits.
Preparation
Preparation: A single blood draw, no special preparation. || Collection & eligibility: Home or centre blood collection. Anomaly scan requires a centre visit. Turnaround is 1–2 weeks (partnered genomics lab).
Add-ons matched to this package — not “frequently bought”.
- Sometimes relevant: Diagnostic fetal karyotyping — only if this screen returns a positive result, via the clinician-led pathway
If you want more coverage
Your genetic counselor will discuss confirmatory diagnostic testing options through Truscan's clinician-led antenatal pathway.
