| Turnaround Time | 3 to 4 Weeks | 6 to 8 Weeks |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
“As a Consultant Medical Genetics, I emphasize that this NGS test is a powerful tool for identifying DMD-related cardiomyopathy, but results must be correlated with cardiac imaging, family history, and clinical presentation. It is not a substitute for regular cardiac monitoring.” – Lina Osama Zaki Quteineh, Consultant Medical Genetics, DHA Reg. ID: 9294403.
