Patient's question:
My mom hasn't been able to cook recently and often says she feels dizzy and has a headache. The key is that I don't really know what's going on, but I just see that she's not in good spirits. Could you please tell me what chromosomal abnormalities can be detected through genetic diagnosis before transplantation?Doctor's answer:
Pre-implantation Genetic Diagnosis, the full name of the third-generation IVF technology, which is also known as Embryo Pre-implantation Genetic Diagnosis. It refers to the selection of embryos without genetic diseases before they are implanted into the mother's body, and then implanting these high-quality embryos into the mother's body. Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis can usually examine chromosomes such as chromosome 13, chromosome 15, chromosome 16, chromosome 17, chromosome 18, chromosome 21, the Y chromosome, and the X chromosome.
