Test Information

The Invitae Epilepsy Panel analyzes genes that are associated with both syndromic and nonsyndromic causes of epilepsy, a common neurological disease characterized by recurrent, unprovoked seizures. These genes were curated based on the available evidence to date in order to provide analysis for epilepsy. Some genes in this test may also be associated with additional unrelated disorders, which are not included in the list of disorders tested. Genetic testing of these genes may help confirm a clinical diagnosis, help predict disease prognosis and progression, facilitate early detection of symptoms, inform family planning and genetic counseling, or promote enrollment in clinical trials.
