Special Issue on Prenatal Diagnosis and Screening
Prenatal
diagnosis uses
a variety of techniques to determine the health and condition of an unborn
fetus. There could be an untoward outcome for the fetus or the mother or both without
knowledge gained by prenatal diagnosis. Prenatal diagnosis is evolving rapidly
recently. The molecular mechanisms underlying congenital disorders and diseases
of pregnancy are well explored and the opportunities for prediction, prevention
and treatment of these conditions are likewise expanding.
In
this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to
submit original researches and review articles on exploring prenatal
diagnosis and screening. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
-
Prenatal management
-
Prediction of adverse
obstetric outcomes
-
Preimplantation
genetic diagnosis (PGD)
-
Prenatal cytogenetics
-
Fetal imaging
-
Fetal therapy
-
Ethical and practical
issues
Authors should read over the journal’s Authors’ Guidelines carefully before submission. Prospective authors should
submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission
System.
Please kindly notice that the “Special Issue” under your manuscript
title is supposed to be specified and the research field “Special Issue – Prenatal Diagnosis and Screening”
should be chosen during your submission.
