Prenatal diagnosis still depends on invasive methods using cells contained in the amniotic fluid or villus cells (Suzumori, 1999).

Prenatal diagnosis still depends on invasive methods using cells contained in the amniotic fluid or villus cells (Suzumori, 1999). These procedures carry a small but important rate of miscarriage (Vyas, 1994). The discovery on the presence of foetal cells in maternal circulation was a turning point for the development of a safe, accurate and
reliable prenatal diagnosis, which could be offered to as a routine test to any pregnant women regardless their age. |
