How are Neonatal Genetic Disorders Diagnosed?

Diagnosis typically involves a combination of prenatal and postnatal screening methods:
Prenatal Screening - Includes techniques like amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS) to detect genetic abnormalities before birth.
Newborn Screening - Involves tests performed shortly after birth, such as blood tests and hearing tests, to identify genetic disorders early.
Genetic Testing - Molecular tests, such as whole-exome sequencing, can be used to confirm a suspected diagnosis.
