Invitae Hereditary Moyamoya Disease Panel
Use
The Invitae Hereditary Moyamoya Disease Panel analyzes genes associated with hereditary moyamoya disease, a rare chronic cerebrovascular condition. Genetic testing of these genes may help confirm a clinical diagnosis, predict disease prognosis and progression, aid in early detection of symptoms, inform family planning and genetic counseling, or promote enrollment in clinical trials.
Special Instructions
This test can be customized by selecting or removing genes. Invitae facilitates testing by offering a specimen collection kit upon request. Additional questions regarding billing or specimen requirements can be directed to client services.
Limitations
Analytical sensitivity and specificity exceed 99% for single nucleotide variants, insertions, and deletions smaller than 15bp. Variants in regions outside the analyzed sequences are not included. Structural rearrangements and variants embedded in complex sequence regions may not be detected. Single-exon copy number events might not be analyzed in rare situations. The assay does not cover non-coding exons, promoter regions and may not resolve mosaicism or phasing.
