PGT Lab

At Reproductive Genetic Innovations, it is our goal to provide families with the best chance at having a healthy baby, and to support you, your family and care team along the way.

RGI offers state-of-the-art technologies, a comprehensive range of Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) and embryology services.

PGT is performed in conjunction with an In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) cycle and can significantly reduce the chances of having a baby with a specific genetic condition or chromosomal abnormality. There are various types of PGT available, depending on the needs of the individual couple.

PGT-A

for Aneuploidy

PGT-M

for Monogenic/Single Gene Defects

PGT-SR

for Structural Rearrangements

PGT-HLA

for Human Leukocyte Antigen

PGT-A

PGT-A enables selection of an embryo with a normal chromosome count, reducing the chance of failed implantation, an early miscarriage, or a child with a chromosome abnormality.

PGT-M

PGT-M allows for selection of embryos, free of genetic disorder while avoiding the difficult decision about the outcome of a pregnancy following abnormal prenatal test results. RGI tests for rare conditions, offering specific test set-ups not available at other labs.

PGT-SR

PGT-SR allows for a viable pregnancy, reducing or avoiding the chance of a failed implantation, miscarriage and/or the birth of a child with congenital anomalies, resulting from an unbalanced chromosome translocation.

PGT-HLA

PGT-HLA is requested by couples where a previous child is in need of a bone marrow or cord blood transplant due to a genetic disorder. In planning future pregnancy, not only is it desired to have a child without the disorder, but an HLA-compatible child whose umbilical cord blood can be used for stem cell transplantation, to provide normally functioning bone marrow.
