About this episode

Dr Rory J. Tinker discusses the factors contributing to diagnostic delays in mitochondrial disease and the importance of early recognition.

Dr Rory J. Tinker discusses diagnostic delay in mitochondrial disease, showing that most delays occur before clinical suspicion, despite canonical features being documented years earlier. The study highlights opportunities to shorten the diagnostic odyssey through earlier recognition and informatics approaches.
