The karyotype test can detect a variety of chromosomal abnormalities, including:
1. Aneuploidy: A condition characterized by an abnormal number of chromosomes. Examples include trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) and monosomy X (Turner syndrome). 2. Structural Abnormalities: These include deletions, duplications, inversions, and translocations of chromosome segments. 3. Mosaicism: A condition where some cells in the body have different genetic makeup, which may lead to variable clinical features.
