PMP22-Related Neuropathies via the PMP22 Gene
Use
This test is intended for individuals who have clinical or suspected diagnoses of PMP22-related neuropathies or hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies. It is also suitable for individuals displaying symptoms such as foot deformities, loss of balance, foot drop, or frequent tripping and falls, which are indicative of these neuropathies.

Accuracy depends on the quality of provided clinical information and specimen conditions. Limitations intrinsic to NGS, such as difficulty detecting certain types of variants like small insertions/deletions, may affect results.
