In this thorough and state-of-the-art book, top experts provide cutting edge techniques which greatly expand the depth and scope of classical invasive prenatal diagnosis. The book features a totally unique focus on novel non-invasive approaches for prenatal diagnosis. Following the Methods in Molecular Biologyâ„¢ series format, the chapters feature step-by-step laboratory protocols, lists of the necessary materials, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
