Why Harmony NIPT?
If you decide to take NIPT, there are a couple of important points to keep in mind.
Depending on which brand of NIPT you choose, and which lab analyzes the blood, the quality and reliability of the response varies greatly.
All clinics you find on fostertest.se offer Harmony NIPT where blood samples are sent to Life Genomics’ accredited laboratory in Gothenburg.
