Neurological disorders usually present a complex clinical picture and a high genetic heterogeneity. The massive parallel sequencing approach analyses multiple genes in parallel, enabling these technologies to provide a fast, cost-effective diagnosis. Likewise, other approaches may be the tool of choice in certain types of neurological disorders, for example, using triplet expansion analysis when testing for spinocerebellar ataxia.
NIMGenetics has all the necessary tools for the genetic approach to neurological disorders.
