Find Clarity About Hereditary Neurological Conditions
When you’re worried about progressive mobility challenges or have a family history of neurological disorders, uncertainty can feel overwhelming. Our IBA57 Gene Spastic Paraplegia Type 74 test provides the definitive answers South African families need to plan for the future with confidence.
Understanding Your IBA57 Genetic Test
This advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) test examines the IBA57 gene for specific mutations that cause spastic paraplegia type 74 – a hereditary condition that affects nerve function in the legs. Unlike basic genetic screenings, our comprehensive analysis provides precise information about autosomal recessive inheritance patterns, helping you understand exactly what this means for you and your family.
Using state-of-the-art technology, we detect even the smallest genetic variations with exceptional accuracy, giving you reliable results you can trust for important health decisions.
