Test Overview / نظرة عامة على الاختبار

The ACAD9 gene NGS test is a high-resolution genetic analysis designed to detect pathogenic variants causing Leigh syndrome and mitochondrial encephalopathy. This test empowers neurologists, pediatricians, and neonatologists with definitive molecular diagnosis, guiding therapy, family planning, and prognostic assessments.

Feature Our Test (ACAD9 NGS) Closest Alternative (Single‑Gene Sanger)
Precision >99.9% sensitivity for coding and splice regions ~95% sensitivity; misses deep intronic variants
Method Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) with CNV calling Sanger sequencing; no copy number analysis
Turnaround Time 3 – 4 Weeks 6 – 8 Weeks
Price 2800 AED ~3500 AED

Physician Insight & Safety Protocol / رؤية الطبيب وبروتوكول السلامة

“As a clinical geneticist, I strongly recommend this test when Leigh syndrome is suspected, but a negative result does not rule out all mitochondrial disorders. Clinical correlation with neuroimaging, metabolic workup, and muscle biopsy remains essential. Families need thorough counselling because the implications of a positive ACAD9 variant extend to future pregnancies and at-risk relatives.”

⚠️ Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor.

Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance / أسئلة المرضى والإرشادات السريرية

1. What is the clinical benefit of the ACAD9 gene test?

Snippet Answer: The ACAD9 NGS test definitively confirms Leigh syndrome etiology, enables tailored mitochondrial cocktail therapy, and informs reproductive risk through precise genetic counseling.

يؤكد اختبار جين ACAD9 السبب الجيني لمتلازمة لي، مما يوجه العلاج الدوائي المتقدري ويحدد خطر التكرار في العائلات.

2. How should I prepare for the test and what does the process involve?

Snippet Answer: Provide a detailed three‑generation family pedigree and clinical history; a 5 ml EDTA blood sample is collected at home under cold‑chain, and results arrive in 3‑4 weeks.

تحتاج إلى تقديم تاريخ عائلي مفصل وجلسة استشارة وراثية، ثم تُسحب عينة دم في المنزل وتحفظ ضمن سلسلة تبريد لحين التحليل.

3. Is the test covered by insurance in the UAE?

Snippet Answer: Most UAE insurers reimburse this when justified by a neurologist’s referral; our team handles direct billing verification via WhatsApp at +971 54 548 8731.
