NoonanNext
Use
The NoonanNext test is designed for the detection of Noonan syndrome, which is a disorder characterized by unusual facial features, short stature, congenital heart defects, bleeding issues, developmental delays, and rib cage malformations. The test helps in clarifying diagnosis and assessing the risk of congenital heart disease, targeting medical management, and offering genetic testing for family members to aid in medical surveillance.

Limitations
The test is capable of detecting >99% of mutations in the tested genes, but clinical sensitivity may vary depending on individual and family history. Exon-level resolution may not be achieved for some genes, and gross deletion/duplication analysis is confirmed when necessary. Analytical sensitivity is high, but technical issues and unknown gene associations can limit detection.
