Download or read book Current Practice of Prenatal Diagnosis in Canada written by Canada. Royal Commission on New Reproductive Technologies and published by Canadian Government Publishing. This book was released on 1993 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume documents in some detail current practices in prenatal diagnosis and testing in Canada today and, in the process, provides answers to many questions raised in the Commission's public consultations. This is done through an analysis of the activities of all Canadian genetics centres providing PND, as well as an analysis of the process by which women are referred to these centres. Other studies in the volume focus not on prenatal diagnostic procedures but on prenatal screening programs. These programs involve a wider range of physicians, often including general practitioners, and the studies examine how such programs have been introduced in Canada and the extent to which, in this wider arena, they conform to the standards established for the introduction of prenatal diagnostic techniques.
