Diagnosis of cellular disorders in children typically involves a combination of clinical evaluation, family history, and specialized tests:
1. Genetic Testing: Techniques like [karyotyping]() and [molecular genetic testing]() can identify chromosomal abnormalities and specific gene mutations. 2. Biochemical Tests: These tests measure enzyme levels and metabolic byproducts in blood and urine to diagnose metabolic disorders. 3. Imaging Studies: Methods such as [MRI]() and [CT scans]() can detect tumors and other abnormalities at the cellular level.
