Find Clarity for Your Child’s Neurological Development
When you’re concerned about your child’s brain development and facing the uncertainty of lissencephaly, every moment counts. Our PAFAH1B1 Gene Lissencephaly Type 1 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the definitive answers South African families need to make informed healthcare decisions and plan for the future with confidence.
Understanding the PAFAH1B1 Lissencephaly Test
This advanced genetic test specifically examines the PAFAH1B1 gene, which plays a critical role in normal brain development. When mutations occur in this gene, it can lead to lissencephaly type 1 – a condition where the brain’s surface appears smooth rather than having the typical folded appearance. Our Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology provides the most accurate and comprehensive analysis available, giving you reliable results you can trust for your family’s health journey.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
- Children showing developmental delays or neurological symptoms
- Infants with feeding difficulties or abnormal muscle tone
- Families with a history of lissencephaly or related neurological disorders
- Parents concerned about seizures or developmental milestones
- Healthcare providers seeking definitive diagnosis for treatment planning
Early detection through genetic testing can significantly impact treatment outcomes and quality of life planning.
