DES Gene Dilated Cardiomyopathy Type 1I Genetic Test | 2800 AED | Dubai Healthcare City
Executive Summary & Core Metrics
Test Overview & Methodology
This Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) panel analyzes the entire DES gene to detect pathogenic and likely pathogenic variants associated with dilated cardiomyopathy type 1I (DCM-1I). The test covers coding exons, intronic boundaries, and regulatory regions for comprehensive variant detection.
| Feature | Our Test (DES NGS – ISO Certified) | Closest Alternative (Single-Gene Sanger Sequencing) |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | Full gene coverage, deep intronic & regulatory regions | Limited to coding exons only |
| Methodology | NGS (Illumina platform, isoform-sensitive) | Traditional Sanger chemistry |
| Turnaround Time | 3 to 4 Weeks | 4 to 6 Weeks |
| Price | 2800 AED | ~2000 AED (typical, not accredited) |
| Accreditation | ISO 9001:2015 (Cert: INT/EGQ/2509DA/3139) | Non-standardised |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
"Interpreting DES gene variants requires careful correlation with clinical phenotype. This NGS test identifies pathogenic alterations linked to dilated cardiomyopathy type 1I, but genetic results alone do not dictate prognosis. Always integrate findings with echocardiographic data and family history."
