Abstract
BACKGROUND: Early detection of rare genetic diseases, including velocardiofacial syndrome (VCFS), is essential for patient well-being. However, the rarity of these diseases and limited clinical experience of physicians make diagnosis challenging. Deep learning algorithms have emerged as promising tools for efficient and accurate diagnosis. This study investigates the use of a deep learning algorithm to develop a face recognition model for diagnosing VCFS.
