Haplotype-assisted accurate non-invasive fetal whole genome recovery through maternal plasma sequencing

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The applications of massively parallel sequencing technology to fetal cell-free DNA (cff-DNA) have brought new insight to non-invasive prenatal diagnosis. However, most previous research based on maternal plasma sequencing has been restricted to fetal aneuploidies. To detect specific parentally inherited mutations, invasive approaches to obtain fetal DNA are the current standard in the clinic because...
