Abstract excerpt
The introduction of the benchtop massive parallel sequencers made it possible for the majority of clinical diagnostic laboratories to gain access to this fast evolving technology. In this study, using the Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine, we present a strategy for the molecular diagnosis of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and respective analytical validation. The methodology relies on a multiplex PCR...
