Abstract
Clinical application of serological screening and non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) both have difficulties to attain high detection rate and low cost. For its advantages of high detection rate, high sensitivity, simplicity, short turnaround time and low cost, digital PCR (dPCR) has provided a new choice for prenatal screening of trisomies 21, 18 and 13. To standardize the application of dPCR for prenatal screening, we have formulated this consensus by referring to relevant guidelines, expert consensus and latest literature, which has covered the basic requirements, application scope, pre-testing service, testing procedure, report interpretation, genetic counseling, and limitations for this technology.
