Nx Gen Sequencing Maturity Onset Diabetes of Young MODY Test
Introduction to the Test
The Nx Gen Sequencing Maturity Onset Diabetes of Young MODY Test is a revolutionary genetic test that identifies mutations responsible for Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY). MODY is a rare form of diabetes that typically arises in adolescents and young adults, often misdiagnosed as Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes. Understanding the genetic basis of this condition is critical for appropriate treatment and management.
