Comprehensive Neurology Panel

Comprehensive Neurology Panel

Neurological disorders affect millions of people worldwide, posing significant challenges to public health. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that one billion people are affected by neurological disorders, with 50 million suffering from epilepsy and 24 million from Alzheimer’s and other dementias. Understanding the genetic underpinnings of these conditions can lead to better diagnosis, treatment, and prevention strategies. Our Comprehensive Neurology Panel is designed to offer a deep dive into the genetic factors that contribute to various neurological disorders, providing healthcare professionals with the tools they need to offer personalized care to their patients.

Key Conditions Covered

The Comprehensive Neurology Panel is a powerful tool that analyzes a wide range of genes associated with neurological disorders. Using state-of-the-art sequencing technologies and sophisticated variant analysis algorithms, we identify and interpret genetic variants within these genes. The panel covers a broad spectrum of neurological conditions, including:

This panel not only identifies genetic variants associated with these conditions but also provides insights into how these variants may influence disease progression, prognosis, and response to treatment.
