Move over karyotypes—genetic disorder detection has vastly improved. Researchers are now using array CGH (aCGH), to quickly scan through an entire genome for imbalances.

Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was developed to identify pathogenic DNA copy-number changes (e.g., duplications, deletions) on a genome-wide scale, and to map these changes to genomic ...
