Leukodystrophy Report

LeukodystrophyLeukodystrophy is a group of rare genetic disorders that affect the white matter of the brain and can cause developmental delay, movement disorders, and vision and hearing loss. Leukodystrophies are caused by mutations in genes involved in myelin formation and maintenance, and this report tests for genetic variants that are known to affect these processes.More than 30 genes analyzed It is recommended if: This report is designed for individuals with a family history of leukodystrophy or individuals with symptoms of the condition, such as developmental delay, movement disorders, and vision and hearing loss. Genetic testing can confirm a diagnosis, provide information on disease severity and progression, and inform treatment and management decisions. Testing can also inform family planning decisions and provide reassurance for unaffected family members.
