Although concentrated in Australia, Europe, Japan and Northern America, facilities performing genetic testing for hereditary neuropathies exist vir- tually worldwide. So do support groups.
In the tables listing the facilities, mere laboratories without clinical facil- ities, on the one hand, are differentiated from clinical departments running their own laboratories, on the other hand. This determination seems rea- sonable because the latter combine clinical as well as genetic engineering knowledge. Therefore, both groups might be contacted for different rea- sons.
With regard to support groups, many people worldwide address them- selves to the aim of providing information and help to affected persons.
Sometimes they are organized in large societies with their own homepages and sometimes they only form local networks. In either case the available information is listed. Evidently, support groups for hereditary neuropathies do not exist in every country. Alternatively, if available, information about neuromuscular support groups is given.
All available and necessary information for the contact of the particular facility or support group is listed in the tables. The institutions are ar- ranged alphabetically by country. The tables provide the name and postal address of the institution as well as a contact person, their homepage and potentially an overview of the feasible genetic testing.
To obtain the depicted information, clinical departments and laboratories were contacted throughout the world. Nevertheless, it is obviously impossi- ble to give a complete worldwide overview. In case of countries with var- ious testing facilities, the ones with the broadest range of genes were cho- sen.All websites and e-mail addresses were fully functional at the time of manuscript writing. However, due to the fast changing internet some of them might change. If so entering the name of the institution into a search engine should supply the up-to-date information.
