Identification of causal mutations have enhanced the diagnosis of inherited thrombocytopenia, however, the clinical sensitivity is still thought to be around 50 %. We sequenced one positive control sample from a patient diagnosed with thrombocytopenia. In this case, we identified a pathogenic variant along with other SNVs, suggesting the clinical specificity of the panel is high. None of the normal samples we sequenced generated positive reports, as expected. Thus, the clinical specificity is >99%. >97% of the exonic regions (plus flanking intronic regions) of the targeted genes are covered.
