The maximum days to obtain the report for the Leukodystrophy Gene Panel test is 21 days.

What are the prerequisites for the test Leukodystrophy Gene Panel

  • Patients must have a clinical suspicion of leukodystrophy based on symptoms and family history.
  • A blood or saliva sample is required for genetic testing.
  • Prior authorization may be required by insurance companies for coverage of the test.

What does this test Leukodystrophy Gene Panel identify?

  • Leukodystrophy Gene Panel identifies mutations in genes associated with various types of leukodystrophy, a group of genetic disorders that affect the white matter of the brain.
  • The panel tests for mutations in genes such as ABCD1, ARSA, ASPA, GALC, GLB1, PLP1, and others that are known to cause specific types of leukodystrophy.
  • By analyzing these genes, the test can help diagnose the specific type of leukodystrophy a patient may have, which can guide treatment decisions and provide important information for genetic counseling.

Why is this test Leukodystrophy Gene Panel taken?

Leukodystrophy Gene Panel test is taken to diagnose various genetic disorders that affect the white matter of the brain, known as leukodystrophies. These disorders are caused by mutations in genes that are involved in the production and maintenance of myelin, a fatty substance that insulates nerve fibers in the brain and spinal cord.

The test analyzes a panel of genes associated with different types of leukodystrophies, such as Krabbe disease, metachromatic leukodystrophy, adrenoleukodystrophy, and Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease. By identifying mutations in these genes, healthcare providers can confirm a diagnosis of a specific leukodystrophy and provide appropriate treatment and management strategies for the patient.
