Understanding Your Results

Results indicate the presence or absence of genetic mutations in the analyzed genes. Consult a genetic counselor or hematologist for detailed interpretation and next steps.
Positive result: Pathogenic variant detected, indicating a genetic cause for bone marrow failure anemia
Negative result: No pathogenic variants found, but does not exclude other causes of anemia
Variant of uncertain significance: Further testing or family studies may be recommended
⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

If you experience symptoms of anemia such as fatigue, pallor, or frequent infections, or if you have a family history of blood disorders, consult a healthcare provider.

Limitations

  • May not detect all genetic variants or mutations
  • Results require clinical correlation and genetic counseling
  • Does not rule out non-genetic causes of anemia

Risks & Considerations

  • Minimal risk from blood draw: bruising, infection, or discomfort
  • Psychological impact of genetic results
  • Potential for uncertain or inconclusive findings

Interfering Factors

  • Sample contamination
  • Degraded DNA
  • Incorrect sample type or volume

Why is this test recommended?
It is recommended for individuals with unexplained anemia, family history of blood disorders, or symptoms like fatigue and frequent infections to identify genetic causes.
How is the test performed?
The test involves collecting a blood sample or extracted DNA, which is then analyzed in a laboratory using NGS technology to detect genetic mutations.
What samples are required for this test?
Blood samples, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card are accepted for this test.
Is fasting required before the test?
No, fasting is not required for this genetic test.
How long does it take to get results?
Results are typically available within 3 to 4 weeks after sample collection.
What does a positive result mean?
A positive result indicates the presence of a pathogenic genetic variant, suggesting a genetic cause for bone marrow failure anemia, which may guide treatment.
What are the risks of the test?
Risks are minimal and include bruising from blood draw, psychological impact of results, and potential for uncertain findings.
Is the test covered by insurance?
Coverage depends on your insurance plan. It is not typically covered under government schemes like PMJAY or CGHS, but check with your provider.
Can this test be done at home?
Yes, DNA Labs India offers free home sample collection for online bookings across India.
What genes are analyzed in this panel?
The panel includes over 150 genes such as ABCB7, FANCA, GATA1, HBB, and others associated with bone marrow failure and anemia.
How accurate is the test?
The test uses advanced NGS technology for high accuracy, but results should be interpreted by a genetic counselor or healthcare provider in clinical context.
