Comprehensive Cardiomyopathy Panel

An 86-gene panel for assessing cardiomyopathy and associated syndromic conditions, powered by the Helix Exome+® platform for comprehensive cardiac genetic evaluation.

Panel Description

Cardiomyopathies are a broad spectrum of structural and functional disorders of the heart musculature. There are many different causes of cardiomyopathies, which range from environmental exposures to inherited genetic risk factors. In cases where an external cause is not identified, and/or a family history is suspicious for hereditary risk, diagnostic genetic testing may be indicated.

This panel evaluates 86 genes that have an established, primary association with cardiomyopathy, and several syndromic conditions of which cardiomyopathy is a feature.

Our team is available Monday through Friday, 9am-5pm Pacific Time.

Indications for Testing

Providing a genetic evaluation for individuals with a personal and/or family history suggestive of a hereditary form of cardiomyopathy. Establishing a diagnosis of a hereditary form of cardiomyopathy predisposition.

Methodology

This test utilizes next-generation sequencing to detect single nucleotide variants, insertions and deletions up to 20 bp, and copy number variants in genes associated with hereditary forms of cardiomyopathy.
