The cell-free DNA prenatal screening test screens for certain conditions caused by an abnormal number of chromosomes. It does not test for all types of chromosomal disorders. A cell-free DNA test can be done as early as 10 weeks of pregnancy and up until delivery. Some of the genetic material (DNA) from the pregnancy circulates in the pregnant womans blood. The cell-free DNA test is done on a sample of her blood. Screening tests are used to estimate whether your fetus is at higher risk or lower risk of having a certain condition. Diagnostic tests can give a definite answer about whether the fetus has a certain condition. These tests include amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling (CVS).
