Use of amniotic fluid to detect presence of any genetic defect in unborn child is called as amniocentesis; the fluid has free foetal cells which are cultured and tested for any genetic disorder. Genetic counselling is to detect risk of any genetic disorder in unborn foetus; for the purpose, the pattern and inheritance of tentative disorder is studied in related individuals/ family members; it is called as pedigree analysis.
