Pre Implantation Genetic Diagnosis
PGD is an early diagnostic of an embryo before it is transferred to the uterus for single gene disorders. Therefore, a PGD test that analyzes the embryo’s DNA before conception will aid in the diagnosis of any single gene abnormalities or mutations. PGD aids in a healthy pregnancy for couples who are at higher risk for a genetic disorder.
