Detail Description

ACTG2 Gene Visceral myopathy NGS Genetic DNA Test

DNA Labs India offers a comprehensive genetic test for the ACTG2 gene, which is associated with visceral myopathy. This test uses next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology to analyze the DNA sequence of the ACTG2 gene and identify any mutations or variations that may be present.

Symptoms of Visceral Myopathy

Visceral myopathy is a rare disorder that affects the smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract, causing symptoms such as:

• Chronic constipation
• Difficulty swallowing
• Abdominal pain and bloating
• Nausea and vomiting

These symptoms can vary in severity and may develop at any age, from infancy to adulthood. Visceral myopathy is often misdiagnosed as other gastrointestinal disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome or gastroesophageal reflux disease.

Diagnosis of Visceral Myopathy

A diagnosis of visceral myopathy is typically made through a combination of medical history, physical examination, and diagnostic testing. Genetic testing can confirm a diagnosis of visceral myopathy by identifying mutations or variations in the ACTG2 gene.

ACTG2 Gene NGS Genetic DNA Test Cost

The cost of the ACTG2 gene NGS genetic DNA test offered by DNA Labs India is INR 20,000. This cost includes genetic counseling and interpretation of test results by a board-certified geneticist.

Conclusion

Visceral myopathy is a rare disorder that can be difficult to diagnose. Genetic testing can provide a definitive diagnosis and help guide treatment decisions. If you or a loved one are experiencing symptoms of visceral myopathy, consider speaking with a healthcare provider about genetic testing.
