Question

What does critical risk of chromosomal abnormalities mean?

Answer

When the report indicates that the fetus is at a critical risk of chromosomal abnormalities, it means that the fetus may be facing the risk of chromosomal abnormalities. In this case, you can consider undergoing amniocentesis or non-invasive prenatal DNA testing for more detailed testing to ensure the fetus’s health. This critical risk indication may mean that the fetus has a higher probability of having Down syndrome, so it is recommended to further perform amniocentesis chromosome testing to determine the situation and carefully select subsequent treatment options if necessary.
