GENETiKS GLOBAL - Genetic Diagnostic Center and Laboratories

Technology has been progressing very rapidly and remarkably incredible advances and high-tech applications are also feasible in medicine today. Out of many medical branches; especially, medical genetics attains new knowledge almost every day and makes use of it for the purpose of diagnosis and treatment in patients. Developments in genetics have revealed that changes in genetic structure are thought to be the main factor behind many diseases. Since any alteration(s) in the genome may potentially be transmitted to the next generations, it is important to put an accurate and pre-diagnostic interfering to develop preventive and therapeutic methods as well as to determine required strategies. Diagnosis of genetic diseases affecting morbidity and mortality rates is of great importance. Prenatal and postnatal diagnosis, determination of carriers within the family, and genetic counselor supervision are also very important for families having the genetic disease(s). Through the application of certain DNA tests, disease-causing genetic changes can be identified. Nowadays, many genetic diseases can be detected during pregnancy and at prenatal and pre-implantation stages. However, it is not technically possible to perform all genetic tests in a single center due to the wide diversity of genetic diseases. So, even today, we might have serious problems in the detection and identification of rarely seen genetic diseases. GENETİKS also aims at providing qualified and reliable services to applicants with our professional staff in the following fields: Clinical Genetics Genetic Counselling Cytogenetics Molecular Cytogenetics Molecular Genetics Cancer Genetics Pharmacogenetic Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) Sports Genetics Nutrigenetics Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing
