Sadly, I had to take one of these tests due to scary NT results. I found it helpful, so I I figured I would post it in the event that anyone gets to "choose" which test they want to take, or just wants to know accuracy

    Given that this chart is put out by one of the tests, it may present comparison data amongst their competitors in a skewed fashion. I have no vested in any of the tests or any independent knowledge of their comparative reliability, validity, predictive power, etc. but I would be cautious about relying on data presented by the maker of a single test company.

    I hope your test results were good!

    Actually, if you look at the charts, it does actually show that some OTHER tests are more accurate on some trisomies than others.

    I agree, it coulb be skewed, but I did see how a different test than the one i took (I didn't really have a choice in the matter as my doctor decided) were better predictors
