| Precision | 99.9% Diagnostic Sensitivity | Lower sensitivity; may miss rare variants |
| Methodology | NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) | GC-MS / Enzymatic Assay |
| Speed | 3 to 4 Weeks (comprehensive) | Varies; often requires confirmation |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
โAs a DHA-licensed consultant medical genetics, I emphasize that this genetic test yields critical data but must be interpreted within the full clinical picture. A positive finding warrants immediate metabolic specialist consultation. Never self-manage based on raw results alone.โ โ Lina Osama Zaki Quteineh, Consultant Medical Genetics, DHA Registration ID: 9294403
