Test Code: PNL133
Hereditary red cell membrane disorders [including: hereditary spherocytosis, elliptocytosis, pyropoikilocytosis, and stomatocystosis] (14 Genes)
Haematogenetics
This targeted next‑generation sequencing panel analyzes genes associated with inherited defects of the red blood cell membrane, including hereditary spherocytosis, elliptocytosis, pyropoikilocytosis, and stomatocytosis. Mutations in these genes can lead to abnormal red cell structure, reduced stability, and hemolytic anemia.
