Find Clarity for Your Child’s Brain Development Journey
When you notice developmental delays or concerning symptoms in your child, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. The TUBA1A Gene Lissencephaly Type 3 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the definitive answers you need to understand your child’s neurological health and plan for their future with confidence.
Understanding the TUBA1A Lissencephaly Test
This advanced genetic test examines the TUBA1A gene, which plays a crucial role in brain development during pregnancy. When this gene contains mutations, it can lead to lissencephaly type 3 – a condition where the brain’s surface appears smooth rather than having the normal folds and grooves. Our Next-Generation Sequencing technology provides the most comprehensive analysis available, detecting even the smallest genetic variations with exceptional accuracy.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is essential for families experiencing:
- Infants with developmental delays or failure to meet milestones
- Children experiencing seizures or epilepsy from early infancy
- Abnormal brain MRI scans showing smooth brain surface
- Family history of neurological disorders or developmental issues
- Unexplained feeding difficulties or muscle tone problems in infants
- Concerns about brain development following prenatal ultrasound findings
