What Types of DNA Testing Does Our Medical Lab Offer?

DNA testing is an important tool used by our medical labs to identify and diagnose genetic disorders. With advances in technology, DNA testing has become increasingly accurate and reliable for diagnosing a wide range of diseases. In this blog post, we will discuss the different types of DNA tests that a medical lab can offer.

The most common type of DNA test offered by medical labs is known as PCR (polymerase chain reaction) analysis or sequencing. This type of test looks at specific regions on your chromosomes to determine if you have any mutations that may be causing disease or other health issues. The results from this kind of test are usually very detailed and provide valuable information about your genetic makeup which can help doctors make informed decisions about treatment options for their patients with genetic conditions such as cystic fibrosis or sickle cell anemia.

Another type of DNA testing offered by Fastest Labs is called karyotyping which involves looking at the entire set (or karyotype)of chromosomes in order to detect abnormalities such as Down syndrome, Turner Syndrome etc.. Karyotyping also helps diagnose certain cancers like leukemia where chromosomal changes are often seen before symptoms develop .
