- Title
Genetic testing for pediatric hearing loss: no time to waste.
- Authors
Kenna, Margaret A.
- Abstract
Since the discovery of the first human deafness gene a quarter of a century ago, our approach to clinical evaluation of children with hearing loss has changed dramatically. What was once a low-yield scattershot approach has changed to a clearly definable pathway involving genetic testing, imaging, and congenital cytomegalovirus testing. There still however is a great deal of work to be done to expand the correct use of this testing, particularly genetic testing.
