FISH – Microdeletion Detection for Williams Syndrome Test
Introduction
Williams Syndrome is a rare genetic condition that affects 1 in 10,000 people worldwide. It is caused by a microdeletion of genetic material on chromosome 7. This microdeletion affects many parts of the body and can lead to developmental delays, intellectual disability, and heart problems. The FISH – Microdeletion Detection for Williams Syndrome Test is a genetic test that can detect this microdeletion and diagnose Williams Syndrome.
Test Cost
The FISH – Microdeletion Detection for Williams Syndrome Test is available at DNA Labs India for INR 8500.
Symptoms
Williams Syndrome can cause a range of symptoms, including:
- Developmental delays
- Intellectual disability
- Distinct facial features
- Heart problems
- Anxiety
- Hypersensitivity to sound
- Feeding problems
It is important to note that not all individuals with Williams Syndrome will have all of these symptoms, and the severity of the symptoms can vary widely.
Diagnosis
Williams Syndrome can be diagnosed through genetic testing, such as the FISH – Microdeletion Detection for Williams Syndrome Test. This test uses fluorescent probes to detect the microdeletion on chromosome 7. It is a highly accurate and reliable test that can diagnose Williams Syndrome with a high degree of certainty.
In addition to genetic testing, doctors may also perform a physical examination and evaluate a person’s medical history and symptoms to diagnose Williams Syndrome.
The elastin gene,?ÿELN, has been mapped to 7q11.23 (Williams syndrome chromosome region, and is reportedly hemizygous in up to 96% of patients with WS. The deletion of an elastin gene locus cannot be detected by conventional high-resolution chromosome analysis in the vast majority of cases due to the small size of this deletion.
