What is the maximum days the report can be obtained for the test

The maximum days the report can be obtained for the test Huntington Disease Molecular Analysis Test is 14 days.

What are the prerequisites for the test Huntington Disease Molecular Analysis Test

  • Patients must have symptoms suggestive of Huntington disease.
  • A detailed medical history and physical examination must be conducted.
  • Patients must provide informed consent for genetic testing.
  • Family history of Huntington disease should be obtained.
  • Confirmation of diagnosis by a neurologist or genetic counselor is recommended.

What are the measure values for the test Huntington Disease Molecular Analysis Test

  • Repeat length of CAG trinucleotide in the huntingtin gene
  • Interpretation of results (positive or negative for Huntington Disease)

What does this test Huntington Disease Molecular Analysis Test identify?

  • Huntington Disease Molecular Analysis Test identifies the presence of mutations in the huntingtin gene.
  • It specifically looks for an expansion of a CAG repeat sequence in the gene, which is associated with the development of Huntington disease.
  • Individuals who have a larger number of CAG repeats are at higher risk of developing the disease and may exhibit symptoms at an earlier age.
  • This test can help in diagnosing Huntington disease, predicting the likelihood of developing the disease, and determining the risk of passing it on to future generations.

Why is this test Huntington Disease Molecular Analysis Test taken?

The Huntington Disease Molecular Analysis Test is taken to diagnose Huntington's disease, a genetic disorder that causes the progressive breakdown of nerve cells in the brain. This test is used to detect the presence of a mutation in the huntingtin gene, which is responsible for the disease. By identifying this mutation, healthcare providers can confirm a diagnosis of Huntington's disease and provide appropriate treatment and support for individuals affected by the condition.
