Description
Summary:The main goal of predictive medicine is to uncover risk factors of a disease to prevent its development and cure it at early stages. At present, the dominant role in disease prevention is attributed to genetics, the modern opportunities of which make it possible to assess the risk of the development of pathological processes. The tasks of predictive technologies in reproductive medicine are the development and introduction of early prophylactic measures to prevent a pregnancy with a genetically pathological fetus and the delivery of a child with an inborn hereditary pathology and to exclude the development of pregnancy complications.
