Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. In order to objectify and specify craniofacial abnormalities of the four new syndromes, three- dimensional (3D) analysis of facial (dys)morphology will be performed using dense surface models. 2. In order to further investigate and identify molecular defects underlying the four new tumor predisposition syndromes, karyotyping, array CGH experiments and/or SNP array will be performed to identify copy number changes and microdeletions. Karyotyping will be performed in order to identify balanced translocations.

Secondary
