    Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.

  • DNA Disease Panel, PRA, Rod-Cone Degeneration (PRA-prcd), D Locus (Dilute) DNA test, Exercise Induced Collapse (EIC), Centronuclear Myopathy (CNM)
