Genetic Testing
Our health is determined by our inherent difference combined with our lifestyles and environment. Knowing a little about Genetics goes a long way.
Genetics plays an important role in health and the development of disease. It is estimated that 3-7% of the general population carry a recognised genetic disorder. Most diseases or medical conditions (except trauma) have a genetic component or are influenced by genetics. Understanding genetic factors and genetic disorders is important in learning more about promoting health and preventing disease.
The benefits of understanding genetic testing and your health include:
New and innovative ways to diagnose disease
Earlier detection by identifying genetic predisposition to a particular disease
Better approaches to treatment
The development of designer drugs that target a mutation or its products (pharmacogenomics)
SYNLAB’s commitment to be leaders in the field of medical innovation and research is resulting in a rapidly expanding advanced genetic test portfolio.

At SYNLAB, our approach is to focus on personalised medicine. Personalised medicine is a move away from a ‘one size fits all approach to the treatment and care of customers with a particular condition. It is an individualised approach to better manage customers’ health and targets therapies to achieve the best outcomes in managing a customer’s disease or predisposition to the disease.
By combining and analysing information about our genome with other clinical and diagnostic information, we identify patterns that can help determine our individual risk of developing disease; detect illness earlier, and determine the most effective interventions to help improve our health.
