Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is the MT-TD gene test for isolated mitochondrial myopathy?
This NGS-based test detects MT-TD gene mutations causing isolated mitochondrial myopathy with high diagnostic accuracy, aiding in definitive diagnosis and family counseling.
2. How is the sample collected, and is it painful?
A simple blood draw, FTA card spot, or previously extracted DNA is all that is required for this 3-week analysis. The procedure is minimally invasive and well-tolerated.
3. How long do results take, and what do they mean?
Results are ready in 3โ4 weeks and will be interpreted by a board-certified geneticist with post-test telephonic guidance. A positive result confirms a pathogenic variant in the MT-TD gene.
