IARS2 Gene Cataracts, Growth Hormone Deficiency, Sensory Neuropathy, Sensorineural Hearing Loss and Skeletal Dysplasia NGS Genetic DNA Test
Introduction
The IARS2 Gene Cataracts, Growth Hormone Deficiency, Sensory Neuropathy, Sensorineural Hearing Loss and Skeletal Dysplasia NGS Genetic DNA Test is a comprehensive diagnostic tool that utilizes Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to identify mutations in the IARS2 gene. This test is crucial for understanding various genetic disorders that can affect multiple systems in the body, including vision, growth, and neurological functions.
What the Test Measures
This test specifically detects mutations in the IARS2 gene, which is associated with a range of conditions including cataracts, growth hormone deficiency, sensory neuropathy, sensorineural hearing loss, and skeletal dysplasia. Early detection of these genetic mutations can lead to timely interventions and management strategies.
