The SNP array is a genetic test primarily used to detect genetic variations across large DNA regions. It is employed to identify mutations that may be linked to hereditary diseases or genetic syndromes.

Many children are only diagnosed with ASD between the ages of 4 and 5, when signs become more evident, but the most effective interventions are usually those carried out before the age of 3.

The risk of miscarriage due to genetic causes increases with maternal age, especially in women over 35, due to a higher incidence of aneuploidies. In women over 40, the incidence of spontaneous miscarriages can reach 50%.

Consider this test in the following cases:
The panel covers:
The SNP array does not focus on specific genes but rather on large regions of the genome, analyzing hundreds of thousands to millions of SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms). This technology enables the detection of copy number variations (CNVs) across large sections of DNA, identifying deletions, duplications, and other structural variations.
The methodology used for this test is as follows:
Blood: No fasting required.
Saliva: 30 minutes of total fasting.
Up to 28 days.
