Abstract:
Highly developed molecular genetic techniques have got implemented widely in the diagnosis of birth defects and genetic diseases.Due to the special nature of genetic testing , there is still a lack of appropriate external quality assessment , but many clinical laboratories are conducting or going to conduct genetic diagnosis for monogenic diseases and prenatal diagnosis.In this paper , it will be discussed that how to ensure the quality control of the laboratory diagnosis of monogenetic diseases , based on the present application of genetic testing technologies and the difficulties in the diagnosis of monogenetic diseases.
