Find Clarity for Your Family’s Neurological Health
When you’re concerned about congenital muscular dystrophy running in your family, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our POMT1 Gene Muscular Dystrophy-Dystroglycanopathy Type B1 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the definitive answers you need to make informed decisions about your family’s health future.
Understanding the POMT1 Genetic Test
This advanced genetic test specifically examines the POMT1 gene for mutations that cause congenital muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy type B1 – a rare but serious condition that affects muscle development and cognitive function from birth. Using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, we achieve 99.9% accuracy in detecting even the most subtle genetic variations.
The test helps identify whether you or your child carry the genetic mutation responsible for this condition, providing crucial information for treatment planning and family decision-making.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
- Families with a history of congenital muscular dystrophy
- Parents concerned about developmental delays in their children
- Individuals experiencing unexplained muscle weakness from early childhood
- Couples planning pregnancy with family history of neurological disorders
- Children showing signs of both muscle weakness and cognitive challenges
- Families seeking clarity about inherited conditions
If you’ve noticed symptoms like poor muscle tone, delayed motor milestones, or developmental challenges in your child, this test can provide the answers you need.
