Gene sequencing uncovers mysterious fetal malformations
Knowledge-focused CompletedThis study tested whether a powerful DNA test called high-throughput exome sequencing can find genetic causes of multiple birth defects in fetuses when standard exams fail. Researchers studied 100 fetuses with at least two malformations and no prior diagnosis. They compared the n…
