To detect genetic syndromes, two groups of tests are available, molecular and cytogenetic tests. After the identification and definition of mutations, diagnostic methods or tests can be used to find them using techniques such as allele-specific oligonucleotide hybridization, allele-specific amplification, ligation, primer extension and the artificial introduction of restriction sites.
