Changes in this gene are associated with Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy. It may be used when a healthcare professional is assessing suspected dystrophin-related muscular dystrophy, confirming a known familial genetic change, or supporting carrier evaluation in appropriate clinical settings. Results are interpreted together with medical history, examination findings, and other genetic tests when needed.
