MaterniT 21 plus

Your patients deserve more, so you should expect more from a NIPS (NIPT)

Time, experience and confidence are valuable resources in any practice. MaterniT 21 PLUS performs in key areas that ensure your time is spent wisely, delivering fast, reliable, and effective prenatal screening results.

When your current NIPS (NIPT) is not enough, use MaterniT 21 PLUS, the most clinically complete NIPS (NIPT) solution.1-4

Labcorp has run over 1 million non-invasive prenatal screening (NIPS/NIPT) since pioneering the technology in 2011, including more than 30,000 twins and more than 50,000 genome-wide tests;5 the depth of experience you should expect from an NIPS (NIPT).

Now offering more screening options and flexibility than other NIPSs (NIPTs),1-4 including GENOME-Flex – the first NIPS (NIPT) high risk pathway – MaterniT 21 PLUS will deliver more value to your practice, and more service to your patients.

Each of the new features is designed to deliver a tangible positive benefit to you and your patients, while improving the service levels you should expect from an NIPS (NIPT) laboratory.

Mosaicism Ratio.

Mosaicism Ratio

Personalized information for
patients with positive NIPS (NIPT) results.

The new Mosaicism Ratio result, only available with MaterniT 21 PLUS (at no extra cost), helps differentiate between a positive result that is more likely to be a true positive, and one with an increased chance to be a false positive.10
