Understanding Your Child’s Development: CENPE Gene Microcephaly Testing
As a parent, noticing that your baby’s head size isn’t developing as expected can be deeply concerning. That small measurement at routine check-ups might be causing sleepless nights and endless questions. At Oracle Genomics, we understand this anxiety and provide the clarity you need through our advanced CENPE Gene Microcephaly Autosomal Recessive Type 13 NGS Genetic DNA Test.
Many South African families have found peace of mind through our comprehensive genetic testing, allowing them to move forward with confidence in their child’s healthcare journey.
What This Test Detects
The CENPE gene plays a crucial role in proper brain development during pregnancy and early childhood. When mutations occur in this gene, it can lead to autosomal recessive microcephaly type 13 – a condition where the brain doesn’t develop to its full size, resulting in a smaller head circumference.
Our Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines the CENPE gene with exceptional accuracy, identifying even the smallest genetic variations that could impact your child’s development.
Who Should Consider This Test
- Parents who notice their baby’s head circumference is measuring below expected growth charts
- Families with a history of developmental delays or microcephaly in previous children
- When healthcare providers have expressed concerns about head size development during routine check-ups
- Parents planning future pregnancies who want to understand potential genetic risks
- Families where cousins or other relatives have shown similar developmental patterns
Early detection through genetic testing can provide the answers needed to access appropriate support and interventions.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Family
Knowing whether your child has a CENPE gene mutation provides several crucial benefits:
- Early Intervention Planning: Access to developmental therapies and support services sooner
- Family Planning Confidence: Understand genetic risks for future pregnancies
- Reduced Uncertainty: Replace anxiety with clear information and a path forward
- Personalised Healthcare: Tailor medical care to your child’s specific genetic profile
- Peace of Mind: Either rule out genetic causes or prepare for the journey ahead with knowledge
Understanding Your Results
Our comprehensive genetic counselling session ensures you fully understand your test results and their implications. We’ll explain:
- What specific genetic variations were found (if any)
- How these variations might affect your child’s development
- Available support resources and next steps
- What the results mean for your family’s genetic health
- Options for ongoing monitoring and care
Remember: A positive result doesn’t define your child’s potential – it provides information to help them thrive.
