How is CMT Diagnosed in Neonates?

Diagnosing CMT in neonates can be challenging due to the variability in symptoms and the overlap with other neuromuscular disorders. Diagnostic methods include:
Genetic Testing: Identifies mutations in genes known to cause CMT.
Nerve Conduction Studies: Measure the speed and strength of electrical signals in the nerves.
Electromyography (EMG): Assesses the electrical activity of muscles.
Clinical Evaluation: Detailed physical examination and family history.
