Newborn screening for primary immunodeficiencies, cystinosis, and Wilson disease is described. The newborn screening can detect these disorders from dried blood spots already routinely collected at the time of birth. Early detection of these disorders will greatly improve patient outcome as each of them can be fatal once symptoms emerge.
