Every year, hundreds of babies are born in Belgium with rare genetic diseases. Early intervention can improve the health and quality of life of a number of these babies - those with treatable conditions. But these diseases can be difficult to diagnose, leading to delays in care and sometimes irreversible damage.<\/p>

Baby Detect is an innovative screening test that analyses a set of genes to identify mutations leading to serious but treatable disease. This list of genes has been compiled with input from specialists in all areas of paediatrics.<\/p>

If you decide to do the test, your baby will be tested for more than 165 rare genetic diseases. It is rare but possible for us to identify a disease at an early stage. We will let you know the result as soon as possible. Your baby could then benefit from early treatment, which could help to reduce his symptoms or prevent him from becoming ill in the first place.<\/p>

There are mutations for which we do not currently know whether or not they cause disease. These mutations are not reported. It is therefore possible that - even if the test does not find a mutation - your child could still be affected by one of these diseases. Conversely, there are rare situations in which we may need to contact you again to check a result - even if your child does not have the disease. The test should therefore be understood as a screening test, not a diagnostic test.<\/p> \t\t\r\n \t<\/div>\r\n \t <\/div>\r\n\r\n \t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Baby Detect is an innovative test that expands newborn screening with more than 165 rare, serious and treatable diseases that occur in early childhood. This allows doctors to treat these diseases early, often before any symptoms appear.<\/p>
