Leukodystrophy Test Report

The Leukodystrophy test is based on Whole Genome Sequencing Test. As such, it analyzes all Common and Rare Variants associated with Leukodystrophy instead of a limited set of genes. Leukodystrophies are a group of rare genetic disorders that affect the central nervous system (CNS). The CNS is made up of your brain and spinal cord. Leukodystrophies damage the white matter of your CNS. When the white matter is damaged, it can slow down or block the signals between nerve cells. This can cause many different symptoms, including trouble with movement, vision, hearing, and thinking. There are over 50 types of leukodystrophies. Some types are present at birth, while others may not cause symptoms until a child becomes a toddler. A few types mainly affect adults. Most types get worse over time.Along with environmental factors, genetics plays a key role in the regulation of Leukodystrophy. - 34 genes analyzed - 100% of genomic regions covered - Intragenic and intergenic regions analyzed - All va
