Test Overview & Methodology
This next-generation sequencing (NGS) test comprehensively analyses the entire ANO10 gene to detect pathogenic variants responsible for autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia type 10 (SCAR10), enabling definitive diagnosis and informed family planning. The test covers all coding exons and flanking splice-site regions with high-depth coverage.
| Feature | Our NGS Test (ANO10 Gene) | Conventional Sanger Sequencing |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | >99.9% sensitivity for all coding regions & splice sites | ~98% sensitivity, limited to targeted exons only |
| Methodology | Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) with high-depth coverage | Sanger sequencing (single amplicon per exon) |
| Turnaround Time | 3 to 4 Weeks | 6 to 8 Weeks |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
โThis NGS analysis of the ANO10 gene provides definitive molecular diagnosis for autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia type 10. However, genetic test results must be interpreted within the context of clinical history and neurological examination. A positive finding should prompt cascade testing for family members. Genetic counselling is essential both before and after testing to ensure informed decision-making and proper understanding of inheritance patterns.โ

Medication Advisory
Important Medication Warning
Do not discontinue any prescribed medication or adjust neurological therapy without consulting your treating physician. Test results are intended for diagnostic clarification, not immediate treatment change. Always maintain ongoing communication with your neurologist.
Patient Safety โ Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
Exclusion Criteria (Home Collection)
Active febrile illness, recent surgery or blood transfusion within 72 hours, known haemoglobin <8 g/dL, or inability to provide informed consent and valid identification.
Emergency Red Flags
Seek immediate medical attention for sudden worsening of ataxia, loss of consciousness, respiratory difficulty, or new-onset seizures. These symptoms require urgent neurological evaluation, not routine genetic testing.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. How accurate is the ANO10 NGS test in detecting the genetic cause of spinocerebellar ataxia type 10?
The test achieves >99.9% analytical sensitivity and specificity for single nucleotide variants and small indels in the ANO10 gene when using a high-depth NGS platform. Validation data confirm it outperforms conventional methods in detecting deep intronic or mosaic variants, providing a comprehensive mutational analysis.
2. How long does the ANO10 test take, and what happens after results are available?
Turnaround time is 3 to 4 weeks from sample receipt in the laboratory. Following results, a DHA-licensed genetic counsellor provides a telephonic session to interpret the findings, discuss inheritance patterns, and recommend family screening if indicated.
3. Is home sample collection available, and how is the specimen handled?
Yes, a DHA-compliant VIP Mobile Phlebotomy service is available daily from 8 AM to 11 PM with ISO-certified cold-chain transport. The phlebotomist collects 2โ5 mL of whole blood into a DNA-stabilizing tube, which is immediately placed in validated cold-chain packaging to preserve nucleic acid integrity until processing.
