Find Clarity About Joubert Syndrome with EXOC8 Genetic Testing
When you’re concerned about neurological conditions running in your family, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our EXOC8 Gene Joubert Syndrome NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the definitive answers you need to make informed health decisions for your family’s future.
Understanding the EXOC8 Joubert Syndrome Test
This advanced genetic test specifically examines the EXOC8 gene using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology – the gold standard in genetic testing. The EXOC8 gene plays a crucial role in brain development, and mutations in this gene are directly linked to Joubert Syndrome, a rare neurological condition characterised by underdevelopment of the cerebellum.
We know genetic terminology can be confusing, which is why our genetic counsellors explain everything in simple, understandable terms during your pre-test consultation.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Abnormal eye movements or vision problems
- Developmental delays in motor skills
- Breathing pattern abnormalities
- Coordination and balance difficulties
- Family history of Joubert Syndrome or similar neurological conditions
- Unexplained intellectual disability in children
Many South African families find peace of mind through early detection, allowing for better planning and management of potential health challenges.

- Early Intervention: Identify risks before symptoms become severe
