Understanding Your Results

Results indicate the presence or absence of pathogenic variants in the TMPO gene. Positive results suggest a genetic predisposition to dilated cardiomyopathy.
📊

No pathogenic variants detected

Low risk for TMPO-related cardiomyopathy, but clinical correlation recommended.

📊

Pathogenic variant detected

High risk for dilated cardiomyopathy; further cardiac evaluation and family screening advised.

📊

Variant of uncertain significance

Requires additional testing and clinical assessment.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

If experiencing symptoms like shortness of breath, fatigue, or irregular heartbeat, or if there is a family history of cardiomyopathy.

Limitations

  • ⚠May not detect all genetic variants
  • ⚠Results require clinical correlation
  • ⚠Not a standalone diagnostic tool

Risks & Considerations
