Frequently Asked Questions

Short answers to the FAQs published with this service.

• What is the purpose of the Holoprosencephaly genetic panel?

The test aims to identify genetic mutations causing forebrain malformations to aid in accurate diagnosis and genetic counseling.

• Is fasting required for this genetic test?

No, fasting is not required; the blood sample can be collected at any time during the day.

• How is the procedure performed?

The procedure involves a simple blood draw, which is then sent to the laboratory for Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) analysis.

• Is home service available for this test?

Yes, home sample collection is available through our platform to ensure maximum convenience for patients and families.

• What exactly does this analysis detect?

It detects point mutations and small variants across a panel of genes known to be associated with Holoprosencephaly.

• How long does it take to receive the results?

Due to the complexity of genetic sequencing, results typically take several weeks to ensure high accuracy in the final report.
