First sentence: Before considering the approaches to preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) it is important to have a clear understanding of the genetic basis of inherited disease.
Description: Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis provides a valuable introduction and overview of the principles and practice of this relatively new branch of medicine, which has been formed by the fusion of Prenatal Diagnosis (PD) with in vitro fertilisation (IVF). This book contains research from leading scientists and clinicians within this field.
