Molecular Tests
The list below shows some of the molecular tests used to confirm a clinical-radiographic diagnosis of genetic skeletal disorder. We also routinely use a clinical exome sequencing approach using the Illumina TruSight system as well as a more extended exome sequencing approach based on the Thermofisher Ion AmpliSeq Exome S5 system to alow for the analysis of "rarer" and novel genes.
Please note that we usually ask to review the clinical and radiographic material before accepting a sample for analysis. We are a non-commercial lab but we need to recover our costs (for tests not done as research). For European countries, we can accept E-112 forms. For turnaround time, pricing, the availability of other tests, or further information, please contact Dr. Lauréane Mittaz-Crettol or Dr. Belinda Xavier (see page "Our Team").
