Diagnosis of anatomical abnormalities often involves a combination of prenatal and postnatal assessments:
Ultrasound - Prenatal ultrasounds can detect many anatomical abnormalities before birth. Physical Examination - A thorough physical examination after birth can identify visible abnormalities. Imaging Techniques - X-rays, MRI, and CT scans can provide detailed images of internal structures. Genetic Testing - Can identify chromosomal abnormalities that may cause structural defects.
