What is Whole Exome Sequencing?

Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) is a powerful genetic test that examines all the protein-coding regions of your genes, known as the exome. It helps identify genetic variations that may be linked to inherited diseases or health conditions.

Why is this test important?

WES is often used to diagnose rare genetic disorders, unexplained developmental delays, or complex medical conditions when other tests haven't provided answers. It can guide personalized treatment plans and family planning.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required. You may be asked to provide a detailed family medical history.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to fast before my blood test?▼

It depends on the test. Tests like lipid profile and fasting blood sugar require 10-12 hours of fasting. Tests like CBC, vitamin D, and thyroid do not require fasting. Each test page on our website clearly states the fasting requirements.
