Is genetic testing available for CF?

Genetic testing may be used to look for carriers of mutated CFTR genes and to screen relatives of people who have cystic fibrosis. Genetic testing looks at your DNA from a blood or saliva sample or cells from the inside of your cheek. Genetic testing can tell you whether you are a carrier of a mutated CFTR gene.

Can you test for CF before birth?

Prenatal diagnostic tests to detect CF and other disorders include amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS). Amniocentesis usually is done between 15 and 20 weeks of pregnancy, but it also can be done up until you give birth. A very thin needle is used to take a small sample of amniotic fluid for testing.

Does Canada test for cystic fibrosis?

What is the recurrence risk of cystic fibrosis?

Once parents have had a child with CF, they have a 1 in 4 chance that each additional child will be born with CF. This means there is a 3 out of 4 chance that additional children wont have CF.
