[Genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis].
Fetal medicine is in full expansion thanks to the tremendous progress made in both fetal access techniques and genetic analysis. In this article, we discuss the role of the genetician within a group of prenatal diagnosis and his contribution to the assessment of fetal diagnosis and prognosis. We describe the different approaches (invasive and non invasive) to fetal investigation i.e. ultrasonography, maternal serum screening, preimplantation diagnosis and FISH.
