Understanding Your Child’s Development: TUBB2B Gene Microcephaly Testing
When your child’s head size or development concerns you, it’s natural to feel anxious and seek answers. Our TUBB2B Gene Microcephaly NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the clarity you need to understand potential genetic causes and plan the best care for your child’s future.
What This Test Detects
The TUBB2B gene plays a crucial role in brain development, and mutations in this gene can lead to microcephaly – a condition where a baby’s head is significantly smaller than expected. Our advanced Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines this specific gene with exceptional accuracy, helping identify whether genetic factors are contributing to your child’s condition.
Who Should Consider This Test
This test is particularly important for families where:
- Your baby was born with a significantly smaller head circumference
- Your child experiences developmental delays or neurological symptoms
- There’s a family history of microcephaly or related conditions
- Previous evaluations haven’t provided clear answers about developmental concerns
- You’re planning another pregnancy and want to understand genetic risks
