The heel prick test performed at birth allows the study of some treatable diseases that, with early diagnosis, improve the morbidity and mortality of the child. Currently, the\nnew genetic sequencing technologies could allow the study of more diseases. At present, a massive study of diseases has not yet been implemented, but there are several pilot research projects around the world.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Most patients with hereditary retinoblastoma have a mutation (genetic alteration) in one of the copies of the RB1 gene. If the experts participating in the CANGUR project select the RB1 gene to be included in newborn screening<\/strong>, in the future, in the event that neonatal screening considers the genes selected in the project, the presence of the inherited mutation in the RB1 gene could be known after only a few hours of the patient’s life. This would allow the patient to be monitored from the first weeks of life, achieving early detection of retinoblastoma, should it appear, improving the prognosis of the disease and avoiding aggressive treatments.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
