Genetic Testing for Cystic Fibrosis in South Africa: A 10-Year Retrospective Study

2025-04-07

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Confirming a genetic diagnosis of cystic fibrosis (CF) for clinically affected individuals should be more accessible today, with more laboratories offering testing and improved technologies at lower costs. Instead, diagnostic testing for CF has become more complex due to the variety of genetic testing options available for the one known causative gene (<italic>CFTR</italic>). This artic...
