What is the Difference Between PGT(A), PGT(M), PGT(SR)

  • PGT(SR): Advised in couples where one or both partners have an abnormal karyotype (e.g., Robertsonian translocations, Reciprocal translocations)
  • PGT(M): Tests for specific genetic diseases in families or abnormalities in carrier screening of couples (e.g., cystic fibrosis, thalassemia)
