ملخص تنفيذي
فحص جيني شامل بدقة تشخيصية تصل إلى 99.9% عبر مرفق معتمد آيزو، مع خدمة سحب منزلي متميزة واستشارة ما بعد الفحص تليفونياً.
Overview: What is the Ataxia NGS Panel?
The Ataxia Genetic Test that sequences a curated set of genes linked to hereditary ataxias using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS). It identifies pathogenic variants responsible for cerebellar ataxia, spinocerebellar ataxias, and related neurological disorders, enabling precise molecular diagnosis and family risk assessment.
لوحة فحص الرنح الجيني هي تحليل شامل للحمض النووي يفحص جينات متعددة مرتبطة بالرنح الوراثي باستخدام التسلسل الجيني من الجيل التالي (NGS)، مما يتيح تشخيصاً دقيقاً وتقييماً للمخاطر العائلية.
| Feature | Our Test (ULAB) | Closest Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Methodology | NGS with CNV analysis + Sanger validation | Single-gene testing or exome sequencing without orthogonal validation |
| Turnaround Time | 3–4 Weeks | 6–8 Weeks |
| Precision | 99.9% analytical sensitivity & specificity | ~95% (no confirmatory sequencing) |
| Price | 3000 AED (all-inclusive) | 3500–5000 AED |
| Post-Test Support | Telephonic clinical guidance & genetic counseling | None or fee-based |
Pre-Test Preparation
Fasting is not required. A mandatory pre-test genetic counseling session (included) will document your full clinical history and draw a detailed family pedigree. Provide a list of current medications and supplements; none interfere with DNA sequencing. No supplements/drugs need to be discontinued.
Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“As a neurologist, I view the Ataxia NGS Panel as a critical tool to uncover the genetic etiology of progressive balance and coordination problems. However, a positive result must be integrated with the full clinical picture; a negative report does not exclude all genetic ataxias. Always review findings with your healthcare provider before altering any treatment plan.”
— Dr. Prabhakar Reddy, Specialist Neurologist, DHA License No. 61713011
Medication Warning:
Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor. Genetic test results may influence management but never replace ongoing clinical care.
Exclusion Criteria & Red Flags:
- Recent blood transfusion or allogeneic bone marrow transplant (may cause donor DNA interference). Use buccal swab or skin biopsy instead.
- Emergency symptoms: Sudden severe headache, loss of consciousness, or stroke-like episodes—seek immediate ER care before elective genetic testing.
- Age < 18 years: Requires parental consent and specialist referral per UAE CDS Law 2026.
- Pregnancy: No risk, but pre-test genetic counseling must address implications for the fetus.
UAE Regulatory Compliance
This test is authorized under Federal Decree-Law No. 41 of 2024 (Art. 87 – Informed Consent & Genetic Testing), the UAE Consumer Data Privacy Law (PDPL), and the 2026 CDS Law for minors. All processing is performed at an ISO 9001:2015 accredited facility (Cert: INT/EGQ/2509DA/3139).
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. How accurate is the Ataxia NGS Panel for diagnosing hereditary ataxias?
The test’s 99.9% analytical sensitivity detects even low-level genetic variants, and orthogonal Sanger sequencing confirms all pathogenic calls, ensuring near‑absolute diagnostic reliability.
تبلغ حساسية التحليل 99.9٪ ويكشف المتغيرات الجينية منخفضة المستوى، ويتم تأكيد جميع النتائج الإيجابية بواسطة تسلسل سانجر لضمان دقة تشخيصية شبه مطلقة.
2. Can I do this if I am healthy but have a family history of ataxia?
Yes, predictive testing is offered after a comprehensive genetic counseling session; results identify carrier status or presymptomatic risk, empowering informed reproductive and health decisions.
نعم، يُتاح الفحص التنبؤي بعد جلسة استشارة وراثية شاملة؛ وتُظهر النتائج حالة الحامل أو الخطر قبل ظهور الأعراض لتمكين قرارات صحية وإنجابية مستنيرة.
3. What type of sample is required, and is the collection painful?
We accept a simple blood draw, extracted DNA, or a painless finger‑prick dried blood spot on an FTA card; home collection by a skilled phlebotomist makes the process comfortable and convenient.
نقبل عينة دم بسيطة أو حمضاً نووياً مستخلصاً أو بقعة دم جافة غير مؤلمة على بطاقة FTA؛ ويضمن السحب المنزلي بواسطة فني محترف راحة وسهولة.
