Recent advances in prenatal genetic testing have made testing for congenital disorders more accessible, with emerging technologies promising further expansion of available testing options. In particular, non-invasive prenatal testing (“NIPT”) has allowed women to identify more fetal disorders earlier in pregnancy than was possible only a decade ago. In addition to allowing women to prepare for the birth of a child with a disability, prenatal diagnoses give women the ability to terminate a pregnancy to avoid raising a child with a disability, a choice driven by myriad factors.

基于原因的堕胎禁令、残疾权利和产前基因检测的未来

产前基因检测的最新进展使先天性疾病检测变得更加容易，新兴技术有望进一步扩大可用检测选项。特别是，与十年前相比，无创产前检测（“NIPT”）使女性能够在怀孕早期发现更多胎儿疾病。除了让妇女为残疾孩子的出生做好准备外，产前诊断还让妇女能够终止妊娠以避免抚养残疾孩子，这是一个受多种因素驱动的选择。
