Cystic Kidney Disease Panel

Cystic Kidney Disease Panel analyzes genes associated with cystic kidney disease, including but not limited to Alport syndrome, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), and nephrotic syndrome. Cystic kidney conditions are genetically heterogeneous disorders representing a spectrum of hereditary renal conditions. The genetic heterogeneity associated with these conditions can make it difficult to use phenotype as the sole criterion to select a definitive cause. Broad panel testing allows for an efficient evaluation of several potential genes based on a single clinical indication.
