Variant Interpretation:
What is the protocol for interpreting a variation as a VUS? Help
All detected variants are evaluated according to the most recent American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) and Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP) recommendations. Variants are classified based on known, predicted, or possible pathogenicity and reported with interpretive comments detailing their potential or known significance.

Are family members with defined clinical status recruited to assess significance of VUS without charge? Help
Contact lab for details.

Will the lab re-contact the ordering physician if variant interpretation changes? Help
Not provided. The laboratory encourages health care providers to contact the laboratory at any time to learn how the status of a particular variant may have changed over time.
Research:
Is research allowed on the sample after clinical testing is complete? Help
Research testing is only performed under IRB approved protocol with an opt-out policy in place.
Recommended fields not provided:
Technical Information
Test Procedure: Help
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and/or Sanger sequencing are performed to test for the presence of variants in coding regions and intron/exon boundaries of the genes analyzed, as well as some other regions that have known disease-causing variants. The human genome reference GRCh37/hg19 build was used for sequence read alignment. At least … View more
Test Platform:

Availability: Help
Tests performed
Entire test performed in-house
Analytical Validity: Help
At least 99% of the bases are covered at a read depth >30X. Sensitivity is estimated at >99% for single nucleotide variants, >94% for indels up to 39 base pairs, >95% for deletions up to 75 base pairs and insertions up to 47 base pairs.
Assay limitations: Help
Clinical Correlations: Test results should be interpreted in the context of clinical findings, family history, and other laboratory data. Misinterpretation of results may occur if the information provided is inaccurate or incomplete. If testing was performed because of a clinically significant family history, it is often useful to first test … View more
