Invitae Ketolysis Disorders Panel
Use
The Invitae Ketolysis Disorders Panel is designed to analyze genes associated with disorders related to impaired ketone body metabolism. This genetic testing may confirm diagnoses and aid in guiding treatment and management decisions. Identification of pathogenic variants provides crucial insight for genetic counseling, risks for family members, and carrier status assessment.
