Panorama Test

How is Panorama different?

Panorama is the only NIPT that can tell the difference between the mother’s and the baby’s DNA, which results in:

• Fewer false positives and fewer false negatives

• The highest reported gender accuracy of any NIPT (gender reporting is optional)

• The ability to detect triploidy, a severe chromosomal abnormality that can result in serious pregnancy complications if unmonitored

• The ability to distinguish whether twins are identical or fraternal – this information can impact the care plan your healthcare provider creates

What does Panorama screen for?

Singleton pregnancies

​

• Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome)

• Trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome)

• Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome)

• Triploidy

• Monosomy X (Turner syndrome)

• Sex chromosome trisomies

• Microdeletions, including 22q11.2 deletion

• syndrome (optional)

• Gender (optional)

​

Twin pregnancies

Identical or fraternal twins:

• Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome)

• Trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome)

• Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome)

• Gender of each twin (optional)

If our screening finds that your twins are identical, Panorama can additionally screen for:

• Monosomy X (Turner syndrome)

• Sex chromosome trisomies

• 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (optional)

Egg donor or surrogate pregnancies

• Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome)

• Trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome)

• Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome)

• Gender (optional)

What are microdeletions?

A small, missing piece of a chromosome is called a microdeletion. Unlike Down syndrome, which occurs more frequently in mothers who are 35 and older, microdeletions occur in pregnancies at the same rate for mothers of any age. Panorama screens for five microdeletion syndromes associated with serious health problems:

• 22q11.2 deletion (DiGeorge) syndrome

• 1p36 deletion syndrome

• Angelman syndrome

• Prader-Willi syndrome

• Cri-du-chat syndrome

At Grosvenor Gardens Healthcare, we work closely with one of the largest private genetics laboratories in the US, Natera. Typically, the Panorama test results are available in fewer than 10 working days. If you are from Dulwich or the surrounding area, and you are looking for a reliable, trustworthy clinic for your prenatal screening, contact us today.
