Variant Interpretation:
What is the protocol for interpreting a variation as a VUS? Help
We interpret and report the patogenic, benign and VUS variants according to the array guidelines and recommendations following the American Collegue of Medical Genetics.

Are family members with defined clinical status recruited to assess significance of VUS without charge? Help
Decline to answer.

Will the lab re-contact the ordering physician if variant interpretation changes? Help
Not provided. We re-evaluate prior interpretations while generating new reports. If a new syndrome or new genes have been described in the altered region of a previous report, we generate a new report and contact to the clinician.
Recommended fields not provided:
Clinical validity, Clinical utility, Will the lab re-contact the ordering physician if variant interpretation changes?, Is research allowed on the sample after clinical testing is complete?, Sample negative report, Sample positive report
