Abstract
Background Submicroscopic genomic imbalances are a major cause of congenital and developmental abnormalities including unexplained Developmental Delay (DD), Intellectual Disability (ID), Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and Multiple Congenital Anomalies (MCA). Submicroscopic imbalances are not visible at the resolution level offered by conventional cytogenetics techniques but could potentially be analysed with array based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) which offers high resolution scan of the genome. We present the motion backed by clinical evidence for the diagnostic utility of aCGH in a clinical settings for aforementioned cases.
