Yes, cri du chat syndrome can potentially be detected before birth through prenatal genetic testing. Non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) and invasive procedures like amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling (CVS) can identify chromosomal abnormalities associated with the syndrome. However, these tests are not routinely performed unless there are specific risk factors. Ultimately, genetic counseling is recommended for expecting parents to understand the implications and options available.
