Current status and prospect of genetic testing for chromosomal microdeletion and microduplication syndromes / 中华检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Chromosomal microdeletion and microduplication syndromes are common genetic diseases.Technologies including fluorescence in situ hybridization , chromosomal microarray , real-time PCR, multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification and high-throughput sequencing have been used to detect these diseases . The advantages and limitations of these technologies as well as their clinical applications in the detection of chromosomal microdeletion and microduplication syndromes are analyzed .
