HLA DNA Typing High Resolution by Next Generation Sequencing NGS Test
The HLA DNA Typing High Resolution by Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) Test is a vital diagnostic tool in the field of organ transplantation. This advanced test allows for high-resolution typing of Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) genes, which play a crucial role in the body’s immune response. Accurate HLA typing is essential for matching organ donors with recipients, thereby minimizing the risk of transplant rejection and improving patient outcomes.
What the Test Measures
This test specifically measures and detects the high-resolution typing of HLA genes A, B, C, DR, and DQ. By utilizing the latest NGS technology, it provides a comprehensive analysis that is more accurate than traditional typing methods.
Who Should Consider This Test
Individuals who are candidates for organ transplantation should consider this test. It is particularly important for:
- Patients with end-stage organ failure.
- Individuals with a family history of organ transplant needs.
- Patients experiencing complications from previous transplants.
Benefits of Taking the Test
The benefits of the HLA DNA Typing High Resolution NGS Test include:
- Increased accuracy in donor-recipient matching.
- Reduced risk of transplant rejection.
- Improved post-transplant outcomes.
- Comprehensive analysis of HLA genes.
Understanding Your Results
Results from the HLA DNA Typing Test will provide insight into the compatibility between the donor and recipient. A nephrologist, gastroenterologist, or surgeon will interpret these results, guiding the next steps in the transplant process.

Booking the Test
To undergo the HLA DNA Typing High Resolution by Next Generation Sequencing NGS Test, you will need to provide a doctor’s prescription on the letterhead, along with one photograph each of the recipient and donor duly stamped. A consent form for HLA Typing for Solid organ transplant (Form 33) is mandatory. The test requires a sample of 4 mL (3 mL min.) whole blood in a Lavender Top (EDTA) tube, which should be shipped refrigerated and should not be frozen.
