ROBO2 Gene Vesicoureteral Reflux Type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test
Introduction to the Test
The ROBO2 Gene Vesicoureteral Reflux Type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test is a cutting-edge diagnostic tool that utilizes Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to identify genetic variations associated with vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). This condition, characterized by the abnormal flow of urine from the bladder back to the kidneys, can lead to serious health complications if left untreated. Understanding the genetic basis of VUR is crucial for effective management and treatment.
What the Test Measures
This test specifically detects mutations in the ROBO2 gene, which plays a vital role in the development of the urinary tract. By identifying these genetic markers, healthcare providers can better assess the risk of VUR and tailor treatment plans accordingly.
Who Should Consider This Test?
Individuals who may benefit from the ROBO2 Gene Vesicoureteral Reflux Type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test include:
- Patients with a family history of vesicoureteral reflux or urinary tract abnormalities.
- Children diagnosed with recurrent urinary tract infections.
- Patients experiencing unexplained renal complications.
Benefits of Taking the Test
Taking the ROBO2 Gene test offers numerous benefits:
- Early identification of genetic predispositions to VUR.
- Informed decision-making regarding treatment options.
- Enhanced understanding of the condition for patients and families.
- Potential for personalized management strategies.
Understanding Your Results
Once the test is completed, results will be interpreted by a qualified genetic counselor or physician. They will explain the implications of the findings, including:
- Presence or absence of mutations in the ROBO2 gene.
- Recommendations for further testing or monitoring if necessary.
- Guidance on family planning and risk assessment for relatives.
Test Pricing
| Test Name | Discount Price | Regular Price |
|---|---|---|
| ROBO2 Gene Vesicoureteral Reflux Type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test | 40,000 KSh | 56,000 KSh |
Additional Information
Turnaround time for results is approximately 3 to 4 weeks. The test requires a sample of blood or extracted DNA, or even a drop of blood on an FTA card. Prior to testing, a clinical history of the patient is necessary, along with a genetic counseling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by VUR.
