Abstract:
Growth is a complex biological process governed by thousands of genes. Genetic defects in a wide array of genes can cause severe growth disorders. Genomic technologies including chromosomal microarrays and whole exome sequencing have revolutionized our ability to diagnose growth disorders. In this brief review, we will discuss each of these technologies and how they have been applied in the field of growth disorders.
