NIPTeR: an R package for fast and accurate trisomy prediction in non-invasive prenatal testing

Abstract Background Various algorithms have been developed to predict fetal trisomies using cell-free DNA in non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). As basis for prediction, a control group of non-trisomy samples is needed. Prediction accuracy is dependent on the characteristics of this group and can...
