Carrier Screening

Carrier Screening is appropriate for those of all ethnicities who want an expanded assessment of their risk of having an affected child.

This panel includes:

  • disorders recommended by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) and the American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG)
  • an extended list of disorders recommended by national Jewish societies
  • disorders that may have a severe presentation
  • a selection of disorders found on the newborn screen
  • several X-linked disorders, including fragile X syndrome
