Prenatal diagnosis is now offered to the majority of pregnant women in Europe and the United States. Advances in obstetric and laboratory techniques mean that increasing numbers of conditions can be diagnosed prenatally; indeed, gene carriers can be identified before pregnancy in some cases. Current obstetric and laboratory techniques for prenatal screening and diagnosis of genetic disorders are discussed.
在欧洲和美国，现在大多数孕妇都可接受产前诊断。产科和实验室技术的进步意味着越来越多的病症能够在产前得到诊断；事实上，在某些情况下，基因携带者在怀孕前就能被识别出来。本文讨论了目前用于产前筛查和诊断遗传疾病的产科和实验室技术。
