Medical Conditions - Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis

Preimplantation genetic diagnosis helps to test embryos or oocytes during the preimplantation stage for any genetic defects. This testing or diagnosis is especially beneficial for couple offspring who have increased chances of getting mendelian syndrome, chromosomal abnormalities, or mitochondrial disorders. It is a complex procedure and hence can be done only by experienced professionals. This diagnosis requires in-vitro fertilization, embryo biopsy, and polymerase chain reaction.
