Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing in Portland (NIPT & NIPP)

Choose the Prenatal Service You Need

Prenatal Chromosome Screening (NIPT)

NIPT uses a maternal blood sample to screen for the chance of selected chromosome conditions. It is a screening test, not a diagnosis. Smart Labs Now helps arrange your collection and laboratory testing. We confirm the panel, pregnancy requirements and any required clinician order before collection. Review your results and any recommended follow-up with your prenatal healthcare professional.

Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity Testing (NIPP)

Get answers about biological paternity before birth. Testing typically uses a blood sample from the mother and cheek swabs from the potential father. Tell us whether you need results for personal knowledge or a legal matter so the appropriate collection process can be arranged.

Early Gender Reveal Testing

Looking forward to a gender reveal? Explore our separate SneakPeek testing service, or ask whether gender determination is available with your prenatal panel. Gender testing does not replace prenatal health screening.

Common Questions About Prenatal Testing

How early can I test?

Eligibility depends on the service and your stage of pregnancy. Call us with your current gestational age so we can confirm when collection can be scheduled.

How long do prenatal test results take?

Prenatal testing follows a separate laboratory timeline and is not included in our standard 48-hour DNA turnaround. We confirm the expected report timing before collection. Some prenatal collections require specific shipping arrangements, so please call before visiting, especially on Fridays.

Can I walk in for prenatal testing?

Please call before your prenatal collection. We need to confirm your eligibility, the required kit, any clinician order and shipping arrangements so your visit goes smoothly.

Is NIPT the same as a paternity test?

No. NIPT chromosome screening and NIPP paternity testing answer different questions. A paternity test establishes biological parentage; it does not screen for chromosome conditions. Learn more about prenatal chromosome screening from MedlinePlus.

Can prenatal paternity results be used for a legal matter?

Tell us about your intended use before collection. We will confirm the available legal-testing process, identification and chain-of-custody requirements. The receiving court or agency determines whether a report meets its requirements.

How much does prenatal testing cost?

Request a current quote for your service, participants and testing purpose. We help confirm the test price, collection charges and any applicable additional fees before you proceed.
