TSC2 Gene Tuberous Sclerosis Type 2 Genetic Test
Cost: AED 4400.0
Introduction
The TSC2 gene, also known as tuberous sclerosis type 2 gene, is associated with the development of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). TSC is a genetic disorder characterized by the growth of noncancerous tumors in various organs of the body, including the brain, heart, kidneys, and lungs.
Test Details
A NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic test for the TSC2 gene involves analyzing the DNA sequence of the gene to identify any genetic variations or mutations that may be present. This test can help in the diagnosis of TSC and can also be used for carrier testing, prenatal testing, and preimplantation genetic diagnosis.
NGS technology allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes, making it a powerful tool for genetic testing. It can provide a comprehensive assessment of the TSC2 gene and identify specific mutations or variants that may be associated with the development of TSC.
