Diagnosis of Alport Syndrome
Your healthcare provider will have to watch your signs, symptoms, and look at your family history to know if you have Alport syndrome. The following tests or exams may be done to help your healthcare provider make a diagnosis:

Urine test: A urine test will help find protein and blood in your urine.

Blood test: A blood test will help find levels of protein, and wastes in your blood.

Glomerular filtration rate (GFR): A blood test will be done to know how well your kidneys are filtering the wastes from your body.

Kidney biopsy:  In this test, a tiny piece of your kidney is removed with a special needle, and looked at under a microscope.

Hearing test: A hearing test will be done to see if your hearing has been affected.

Vision test: A vision test will be done to see if you vision has been affected.

Genetic test: This can help confirm the diagnosis and determine the genetic type of Alport syndrome you may have.
