Indications for single gene testing • High clinical suspicion for a specific gene to be causative for a patient’s clinical presentation • Previous negative genetic testing did not include analysis of a specific gene of interest Benefits of the single gene testing approach • Single gene testing may be cost-effective and minimize the need for testing unnecessary genes that are not of interest. • Single gene testing may reduce the chance of learning about health risks that are unrelated to the current clinical concern. Single gene testing test details • Each single gene test is performed according to industry standards by methodologies including full sequencing analysis using a customized next-generation sequencing library and high resolution (exon-specific) deletion/duplication analysis using a customized oligonucleotide array.
