An Assessment of Traditional and Genomic Screening in Newborns and their Applicability for Africa

2022-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Traditional methods have been diagnosing and treating infants for different congenital disorders in newborn screening (NBS) programs globally, but they are limited to screening for one condition at a time. Next Generation Sequencing provides an opportunity for expanding these programs to include more definitive tests for additional conditions that manifest both in early childhood and late adult-onset stages but th...
