Next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques have improved to a point where whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and whole-exome sequencing (WES) are viable testing options for a range of diagnostic applications. However, analyzing, interpreting, and applying such large quantities of genomic data remains a challenge. Before large-panel genetic testing becomes a routine part of clinical care, diagnostic labs must first address the complexity and consistency of NGS test interpretation.
