Understanding COMP Gene Epiphyseal Dysplasia: Your Path to Clarity
When you notice unusual bone development or joint concerns in your family, it’s natural to feel anxious and uncertain. Our COMP Gene Epiphyseal Dysplasia Multiple Type 1 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the answers you need to understand your family’s bone health journey. For just ZAR 6,700, you can access advanced genetic testing that brings clarity and peace of mind.
What This Test Detects
The COMP gene plays a crucial role in cartilage development and bone formation. Mutations in this gene can lead to Multiple Epiphyseal Dysplasia Type 1, a condition affecting bone growth plates. Our Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines the COMP gene with exceptional accuracy, identifying potential mutations that could impact your family’s bone health.
This isn’t just a test – it’s a comprehensive health assessment that includes professional genetic counselling to help you understand your results in the context of your family history.
