Prenatal Diagnosis
The word “prenatal diagnosis” indicates the researches made to find out about possible fetal and genetical anomalies and other problems.

Such researches can be done by screening tests (non-invasive), which are aimed to individuate the riskiest pregnancies.
Sometimes a genetic consulence may be useful to evaluate the existance of risk factors.
Invasive pre-birth diagnosis techniques such as amniocentesis and villocentesis can be used in case of high risks.
