Frequently Asked Questions

The Fanconi’s anemia test detects mutations in genes responsible for Fanconi anemia (FA), a rare genetic disorder that affects bone marrow and increases the risk of cancer.

It is recommended for individuals with symptoms such as bone marrow failure, congenital abnormalities, or a family history of FA.

A blood sample is analyzed using chromosomal breakage tests or molecular genetic testing to identify FA-related gene mutations.

  • Positive result: Confirms a diagnosis of Fanconi anemia.
  • Negative result: Indicates no evidence of FA.
