NBN Gene Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome NGS Genetic DNA Test
Introduction
The NBN Gene Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome NGS Genetic DNA Test is a specialized genetic diagnostic tool that plays a pivotal role in identifying individuals at risk of Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome (NBS), a rare genetic disorder. This test employs Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to analyze the NBN gene, which is crucial for maintaining genomic stability. Understanding your genetic predisposition can help in early intervention and management of potential health issues.
What the Test Measures
This test specifically measures variations in the NBN gene that are associated with Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome. By identifying these genetic mutations, healthcare providers can assess the risk of developing related health complications, enabling proactive care.
