Usefulness of copy number variant detection following monogenic disease exclusion in prenatal diagnosis

摘要

Aim Families with an adverse history of monogenic disease focus on single-gene diagnosis instead of low-depth whole-genome sequence, during subsequent pregnancies. The aim of this study was to assess the potential usefulness of low-depth whole-genome sequencing (copy number variant sequencing [CNV-seq]) detection following monogenic disease exclusion in prenatal diagnosis.
