Is the purpose of non-invasive genetic testing the same as amniocentesis?

Patient's question:

36, high-risk pregnancy, doctor recommended special and careful examination

Doctor's answer:

Non-invasive genetic testing serves the same purpose as amniocentesis, both aimed at examining how the fetus's chromosomes are normal. Advice: don't be nervous. You are a high-risk pregnant woman, with a higher chance of early pregnancy complications and fetal abnormalities, but it's not absolute. It is recommended to attend prenatal check-ups on time and closely monitor the situation. As long as the examination is appropriate, there should not be too many major problems. For the care and health management of any disease, it is important to maintain a stable mindset, as a healthy and positive attitude is very helpful for both the treatment and prevention of the disease.
