Order Cystic Fibrosis Carrier Testing | CF TestCystic fibrosis is an inherited condition caused by mutations in the CFTR gene, and carrier testing examines that gene to clarify whether a person carries a mutation that could be passed to a child. This blood test focuses on the thirty-two most common cystic fibrosis mutations, offering a targeted look at variants that account for a large share of CF cases in many populations.
About Cystic Fibrosis Carrier Testing | CF Test in Chino Hills
Carrier testing is a genetic screen, not a diagnostic confirmation of disease.
Cystic fibrosis follows an autosomal recessive pattern, which means a child must inherit a CFTR mutation from each parent to be affected. A carrier has one changed copy of the gene and typically no symptoms, yet can pass that copy on.
This panel evaluates the thirty-two most frequently observed CF mutations rather than sequencing the entire CFTR gene. Because testing is limited to those variants, a negative result reduces but does not eliminate the chance of being a carrier.
Results are generally reported as positive or negative for the mutations included in the panel. A positive finding indicates that a CFTR mutation was detected; it does not by itself indicate disease, and interpretation is best done alongside genetic counseling.
