RNASEH2A Gene Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome type 4 Genetic Test
Genetic testing plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and management of various genetic disorders. One such disorder is Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome type 4, which affects the brain and immune system. The RNASEH2A gene is associated with this rare genetic disorder.
Test Details
The RNASEH2A Gene Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome type 4 Genetic Test is a neurology-based test that utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology. It aims to identify mutations in the RNASEH2A gene, which are responsible for causing Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome type 4.
Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome type 4 is characterized by early onset encephalopathy, developmental delay, and other neurological symptoms. By identifying these mutations, the test can aid in the diagnosis of affected individuals and their family members.
Components and Price
The cost of the RNASEH2A Gene Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome type 4 Genetic Test is AED 4400.0. The test requires a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery and Test Department
After the sample is collected, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. The test is conducted in the Genetics department of the laboratory.
Pre Test Information
Prior to undergoing the RNASEH2A Gene Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome type 4 Genetic Test, it is essential to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session is recommended to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome type 4.
Role of the Neurologist
A neurologist plays a vital role in ordering and interpreting the results of the RNASEH2A Gene Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome type 4 Genetic Test. They are responsible for diagnosing and managing neurological disorders.
Importance of the Test
The RNASEH2A Gene Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome type 4 Genetic Test is crucial in providing an accurate diagnosis for individuals affected by Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome type 4. It also enables genetic counseling for both affected individuals and their family members. Additionally, the test results guide treatment and management decisions.
