Test Details
The Chorionic Villus Biopsy (CVB) test is a prenatal diagnostic test that is performed to detect genetic abnormalities in a developing fetus. The test involves taking a small sample of cells from the placenta, which is known as the chorionic villi, using a thin needle that is inserted through the mother’s abdomen or cervix. The sample is then analyzed in a laboratory to detect any chromosomal or genetic abnormalities.
The CVB test is typically performed between 10 and 13 weeks of pregnancy and can detect a wide range of genetic disorders, including Down syndrome, cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, and Tay-Sachs disease. The test is highly accurate and can provide parents with valuable information about their baby’s health and potential medical needs.
However, the CVB test does carry some risks, including a small risk of miscarriage and the potential for inaccurate results. As with any medical procedure, parents should carefully consider the risks and benefits of the CVB test before deciding whether to undergo the procedure.
