Clinical validity

Help

Samples from eighteen patient cases from the Metabolic Hematology laboratory that had other clinical testing results (CE, HPLC, RBC enzyme levels, morphology) used to diagnose the patient were sequenced. The data for all patient cases revealed reportable sequence alterations in genes associated with the patient's phenotype and diganosis. All variants identified by the MiSeq assay were confirmed by the orthogonal testing method.
