Assessing Thalidomide Embryopathy with valiDATE

valiDATE is a diagnostic tool designed to help clinicians in screening cases of potential Thalidomide Embryopathy (TE) by assessing how consistent the physical damage exhibited is with the known pattern of damage associated with TE.

It was one of the key outputs of a meeting of Thalidomide experts organised by WHO and has been tested and validated by the WHO’s Uppsala Monitoring Centre (UMC).
