Test Overview & Methodology
Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS) per embryo uses advanced genomic technologies to analyse blastocyst biopsies for chromosomal aneuploidies before IVF transfer, maximising the likelihood of a healthy, successful pregnancy. Clinically, the test integrates Next‑Generation Sequencing (NGS) and Chromosomal Microarray for comprehensive, rapid reporting within 1‑2 days.
| Feature | Our Test (PGS per Embryo) | Standard Karyotyping (Alternative) |
|---|---|---|
| Methodology | NGS + Chromosomal Microarray | Giemsa banding / FISH |
| Detection Resolution | ≥99.9% for whole‑chromosome aneuploidy, segmental imbalances | ~70‑80%, limited to large structural changes |
| Turnaround Time | 1‑2 days | 5‑10 days |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols

Safety Exclusion Criteria & ER Red Flags
- Contraindicated if embryo biopsy cannot be performed safely (e.g., extreme blastocyst fragility).
- Emergency red flags post‑biopsy: sudden severe pelvic pain, fever >38°C, heavy vaginal bleeding, or signs of infection – seek urgent medical attention.
- PGS does not replace prenatal diagnostic testing (e.g., amniocentesis) later in pregnancy; confirmatory testing is advised.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS) per embryo?
PGS per embryo screens blastocyst biopsies for chromosomal abnormalities, enabling selection of euploid embryos for transfer, thus increasing the chance of a successful pregnancy.
2. How accurate is PGS per embryo?
PGS per embryo achieves 99.9% diagnostic sensitivity when performed with NGS and microarray technologies, offering the highest resolution for aneuploidy detection.
3. Does PGS require a doctor's prescription in UAE?
Yes, UAE regulations require a physician's prescription for PGS, as it is an invasive procedure performed within licensed fertility clinics. Your IVF specialist will provide the necessary referral.
