Attending the seminar, on behalf of the Center for Reproductive Support, Phu Tho Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital, there was the presence of Dr. Doan Trung Kien (Director), Dr. Nguyen Thi Mai (Deputy Director), Dr. Le Ngoc Tue Nhi (Head of IVF Lab) and doctors of the department. Representing GENTIS, there were Mr. Nguyen Van Huynh (Head of R&D Group) and Dr. Vu Thu Huong.
At the seminar, Dr. Vu Thu Huong gave a detailed presentation on FISH, the process, principles and values that this test brings. In addition, Mr. Nguyen Van Huynh also introduced and presented in detail about the two PGT NEXT and PGT UPGRADE test packages of GENTIS. One of the highlights of the seminar was the discussion about the benefits and technology applied to the two newly launched PGT products of GENTIS. According to Mr. Nguyen Van Huynh, thanks to the use of specialized bioinformatics software optimized for the Vietnamese population, this test not only helps detect genetic abnormalities but also helps reduce the risk of miscarriage, increase the success rate of in vitro fertilization (IVF) and help select healthy embryos to place in the uterus.
PGT testing helps couples avoid difficult situations, such as facing an unhealthy pregnancy or the risk of giving birth to a child with a serious genetic disease. Especially for older couples or couples with a history of genetic disease, PGT is an effective solution, helping to screen and select healthy embryos, thereby increasing the chance of having a safe and healthy child.
During the seminar, doctors at Phu Tho Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital asked many questions about FISH testing as well as PGT NEXT and PGT UPGRADE: "Can embryonic cells after FISH be used for other tests?", "The time to return results of PGT NEXT seems a bit long, can it be reduced in the future?". Accordingly, Mr. Nguyen Van Huynh and Dr. Vu Thu Huong gave extremely detailed answers, delving into the issues that doctors were still wondering about. This provided doctors with a clearer understanding of the future development of FISH, PGT NEXT and PGT UPGRADE tests at GENTIS.
The seminar took place in an engaging and dynamic atmosphere and received a lot of attention and positive feedback from the participating doctors. Dr. Doan Xuan Kien said: "I am very grateful and appreciate the presence of GENTIS today, thank you for organizing such a meaningful and practical seminar, helping doctors to update new knowledge about FISH testing, as well as better understand the breakthrough and necessity of applying PGT NEXT, PGT UPGRADE in pre-embryo genetic testing technology. These tests are not only a great step forward in medicine but also bring a new ray of hope to couples on the journey to find their beloved children".
Hopefully after the seminar, GENTIS and Phu Tho Maternity and Pediatrics Hospital will have more opportunities to cooperate for the development of both units!
