MODERN METHODS FOR THE DETECTION OF GENETIC DISORDERS
Abstract
Recent advancements in molecular biology have revolutionized the detection of genetic disorders. From traditional karyotyping to advanced genomic technologies such as next-generation sequencing (NGS), these tools offer greater accuracy, speed, and cost-effectiveness. This article reviews the current methodologies used for diagnosing inherited genetic disorders, including their advantages, limitations, and clinical applications.
Keywords
