Endocrinology

Our offer includes 22 panels containing genes, disorders of which can be related to the malfunction of hormones. Disease diagnostics, based on the highest-quality genetic test with the NGS method, enables appropriate therapy for the patient.

Hormones are chemical compounds whose purpose is to regulate the proper functioning of the whole organism. In many cases, too intense or impaired secretion of hormones into the bloodstream may be genetic, such as familial hyperparathyroidism, characterized by excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone. Other disorders related to the abnormal secretion of hormones include, among others, diabetes mellitus, hyperaldosteronism, glucocorticoid deficiency, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, combined pituitary hormone deficiency.

All genetic tests are performed using the next-generation sequencing method, using Illumina sequencers. Our tests are subject to internal and external control. The laboratory is subject to continuous external quality control.
