Variant Interpretation:
What is the protocol for interpreting a variation as a VUS? Help
Variants are categorized as pathogenic, likely pathogenic or a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) utilizing the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG)/Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP) guidelines as published by Richards et al 2015.

Analytical Validity: Help
Whole genome sequencing (WGS) methodology provides comprehensive access to an individual’s genome including coverage of coding as well as non-coding regions. Whole genome sequencing identifies small sequence changes including single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and small insertions and deletions (Indels) as well as large structural variants including large duplications and deletions.The … View more
