Genetic CIM Test – Congenital Megaesophagus

With the CIM test, we analyze genetic variants associated with congenital megaesophagus (CIM) in dogs. This congenital disorder of the esophagus leads to significant feeding difficulties and an increased risk of aspiration pneumonia. Our test enables breeders and dog owners to detect risks early and make responsible decisions.

What is tested?
The test identifies genetic mutations that impair the normal function of the esophagus and can lead to the development of megaesophagus.

Who is the test suitable for?

  • Breeders: Support for targeted and responsible breeding plans.
  • Dog owners: Important information for health care and nutrition.
  • Breeds: Especially recommended for German Shepherds, Irish Setters, Labrador Retrievers, Great Danes, and other predisposed breeds.

Results and significance:

  • Early detection of genetic risks for congenital megaesophagus.
  • Avoidance of affected matings and targeted breeding plans.
  • Clear and understandable results with practical recommendations for action.

Sample material:
Oral mucosa or 1-2 ml EDTA blood.

Processing time:
Around 10-14 days after receipt of the sample.
