Invitae Spondylocostal Dysostosis Panel
Use
The Invitae Spondylocostal Dysostosis Panel analyzes genes associated with disorders causing spondylocostal dysostosis. These genetically heterogeneous disorders are primarily characterized by rib and vertebral anomalies, making it difficult to use phenotype as the sole criterion for diagnosis. This panel allows for efficient evaluation of multiple potential genes based on a single clinical indication.
