This laboratory analysis looks at the genes responsible for making part of the hemoglobin protein in red blood cells, checking for missing or extra copies of genetic material that cause alpha thalassemia, an inherited blood condition. It's used to diagnose the condition, determine its severity, or check whether a person carries a copy that could be passed to children. The test is typically run on a blood sample.
