Incidental Findings from Clinical Genome‐Wide Sequencing: A Review

25 May 2013

Abstract excerpt

There are several unresolved challenges associated with the clinical application of genome-wide sequencing technologies. One of the most discussed issues is incidental findings (IF), which are defined as discoveries made as a result of genetic testing that are unrelated to the indication for the test. The discussion surrounding IF began in the context of research, which we have used to frame consideration of IF...
