Nx Gen Sequencing Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease Sensory Neuropathies Test
Introduction to the Test
The Nx Gen Sequencing Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease Sensory Neuropathies Test is an advanced genetic testing procedure designed to identify mutations in genes associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease (CMT) and sensory neuropathies. This test utilizes Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) and Sanger sequencing methods to provide an in-depth analysis of genetic disorders affecting the peripheral nervous system. With a price of 520000 NGN, this test is essential for individuals exhibiting symptoms of hereditary neuropathies.
What the Test Measures
This test detects mutations in a comprehensive panel of genes known to be associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease and sensory neuropathies. Key components analyzed include:
- AARS
- ABHD12
- AIFM1
- ARHGEF10
- ATL1
- … (and many more)
Who Should Consider This Test?
Individuals who experience symptoms such as muscle weakness, atrophy, and sensory loss, particularly those with a family history of Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease or related neuropathies, should consider this test. Risk factors include:
- Family history of hereditary neuropathies
- Progressive muscle weakness
- Foot deformities or difficulty walking
Benefits of Taking the Test
- Accurate diagnosis of genetic disorders.
- Guidance for treatment options and management strategies.
- Informed family planning for at-risk individuals.
- Access to specialized care from neurologists and genetic counselors.
Understanding Your Results
Results from the Nx Gen Sequencing Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease Sensory Neuropathies Test will provide insights into the presence of genetic mutations. It is crucial to discuss these results with a healthcare provider to understand their implications and the next steps for treatment or management.
