What is ChromosomesCheck™ ?

ChromosomesCheck™ is a rapid genetic test that detects common chromosome abnormalities using the QF-PCR (Quantitative Fluorescent Polymerase Chain Reaction) method. This test provides quick and accurate results by analyzing specific DNA markers from chromosomes.

What Does It Detect?

ChromosomesCheck™ focuses on identifying the most common aneuploidies (abnormal number of chromosomes):

• Trisomy 21 (Down Syndrome)
• Trisomy 18 (Edwards Syndrome)
• Trisomy 13 (Patau Syndrome)
• Sex Chromosome Abnormalities (X and Y)

Key Benefits

• Fast Results – Provides rapid detection compared to traditional karyotyping
• Accurate Screening – Highly sensitive in identifying targeted chromosomal abnormalities
• Supports Clinical Decisions – Helps doctors and families in early diagnosis and care planning

Who Should Consider ChromosomesCheck™ ?

This test may be recommended for:

• Pregnant women undergoing prenatal diagnosis (e.g., after invasive procedures like amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling)
• Families with a history of chromosomal disorders
• Cases where ultrasound shows suspicious findings that require genetic confirmation
• Parents seeking faster results before full karyotyping or microarray is completed

Next Steps

ChromosomesCheck™ offers targeted rapid answers, but it can be followed by Karyotyping or Chromosomal Microarray (CMA) for a more comprehensive analysis of structural and rare chromosomal abnormalities.
