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
Yes. 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.
