Screening
Assessing a group of people to determine who among them is at particular risk of having or transmitting a disease or health problem. In the context of UK gamete donation, screening of gamete donors is legally required, in order to assess the risk presented by HIV and Hepatitis B and C. Additional tests may be required depending on the donor's circumstances, in accordance with current professional guidelines.
