ABSTRACT:
A method for the evaluation of the condition of a fetus by quantitative measurement of prostate specific antigen (PSA) is provided. In the method, a sample of amniotic fluid or maternal serum is obtained at a gestational week and the sample is assayed for the amount of PSA present. The amount of PSA in the sample is compared with the PSA mean for the given gestational week and evaluated for the risk of a phenotypic and/or genotypic disorder.
