SDHB Gene Pheochromocytoma type 2 Genetic Test
Cost: AED 4400.0
Test Details:
The SDHB gene is associated with Pheochromocytoma type 2, a rare genetic condition that predisposes individuals to develop tumors called pheochromocytomas. These tumors are typically found in the adrenal glands, but can also occur in other parts of the body.
Components:
- Price: AED 4400.0
- Sample Condition: Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card
- Report Delivery: 3 to 4 Weeks
- Method: NGS Technology
- Test type: Cancer
- Doctor: Oncologist
- Test Department: Genetics
Pre Test Information:
Clinical History of Patient who is going for SDHB Gene Pheochromocytoma type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with SDHB Gene Pheochromocytoma type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test gene SDHB.
Test Procedure:
The NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of Pheochromocytoma type 2, this test can identify mutations or changes in the SDHB gene that may be responsible for the development of pheochromocytomas. The test involves obtaining a blood or saliva sample from the individual, which is then sent to a laboratory for DNA extraction and sequencing using NGS technology. The sequencing data is analyzed to identify any mutations or changes in the SDHB gene.
Importance of the Test:
The results of the NGS genetic test can help confirm a diagnosis of Pheochromocytoma type 2 and provide important information for the management and treatment of the condition. It can also help identify family members who may be at risk of developing pheochromocytomas and inform genetic counseling and screening recommendations.

Test Details |
The SDHB gene is associated with Pheochromocytoma type 2, which is a rare genetic condition that predisposes individuals to develop tumors called pheochromocytomas. Pheochromocytomas are usually found in the adrenal glands, which are located on top of the kidneys, but they can also occur in other parts of the body. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic test that uses advanced sequencing technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of Pheochromocytoma type 2, NGS genetic testing can identify mutations or changes in the SDHB gene that may be responsible for the development of pheochromocytomas. The NGS genetic test for SDHB gene mutations typically involves obtaining a blood or saliva sample from the individual undergoing testing. The sample is then sent to a laboratory, where the DNA is extracted and sequenced using NGS technology. The sequencing data is then analyzed to identify any mutations or changes in the SDHB gene. The results of the NGS genetic test can help confirm a diagnosis of Pheochromocytoma type 2 and provide important information for the management and treatment of the condition. It can also help identify family members who may be at risk of developing pheochromocytomas and inform genetic counseling and screening recommendations. |
