ABCA4 Gene Cone-rod dystrophy type 3 Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the ABCA4 Gene Cone-rod dystrophy type 3 Genetic Test to help diagnose and understand cone-rod dystrophy type 3, a rare inherited eye disorder that affects the function of both the cones and rods in the retina.
Test Details
The ABCA4 gene is responsible for producing a protein that is essential for the proper function of the retina, the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. Mutations in the ABCA4 gene can lead to cone-rod dystrophy type 3.
NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a method of analyzing DNA that can detect mutations in the ABCA4 gene. This type of testing can help diagnose cone-rod dystrophy type 3 and provide information about the severity of the condition, the risk of passing it on to future generations, and potential treatment options.
Test Components and Price
The ABCA4 Gene Cone-rod dystrophy type 3 Genetic Test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The test requires a blood sample from the patient.
Report Delivery and Method
The test results are typically delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. The analysis is performed using NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) technology.
Test Type and Doctor
The ABCA4 Gene Cone-rod dystrophy type 3 Genetic Test falls under the category of Ophthalmology Disorders. It is recommended to consult an Ophthalmologist for this test.
Test Department and Pre Test Information
The ABCA4 Gene Cone-rod dystrophy type 3 Genetic Test is conducted in the Genetics department. Prior to the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient and undergo a Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with ABCA4 Gene Cone-rod dystrophy type 3 NGS Genetic DNA Test gene ABCA4.
Conclusion
NGS genetic testing for cone-rod dystrophy type 3 can provide valuable insights into the genetic basis of the condition. It helps patients and their families make informed decisions about their medical care, understand the severity of the condition, and assess the risk of passing it on to future generations.

This type of testing can help diagnose cone-rod dystrophy type 3 and provide information about the severity of the condition, the risk of passing it on to future generations, and potential treatment options. NGS genetic testing typically involves collecting a blood or saliva sample from the patient, which is then sent to a specialized laboratory for analysis. The results of the test can take several weeks to several months to be processed, depending on the complexity of the analysis and the specific laboratory conducting the test. Overall, NGS genetic testing for cone-rod dystrophy type 3 can be a valuable tool for patients and their families in understanding the genetic basis of the condition and making informed decisions about their medical care. |
