What is NIPT?

NIPT is an abbreviation for Non Invasive Prenatal Test and is a blood sample from the mother that screens for chromosome anomalies in the fetus. You can choose a NIPT test if you want a highly accurate risk assessment without putting a risk to your pregnancy.

There are different NIPT providers and we offer Panorama and Evita Test Complete. If you are not sure which NIPT test is right for you you can use the guide at the bottom of this page to help you decide.

Panorama 1

I have experienced fetal demise (vanishing twin) in this pregnancy.

Unfortunately it is not possible to do a NIPT test in a pregnancy with high probability of DNA from another deceased fetus. It is also not possible to get a NIPT test if there are 3 or more alive fetuses.

I want to know the gender of my baby.

Gender is optional in Panorama and Evita. If you don’t need a NIPT test you can book a gender scan from week 14+0.
