Abstract excerpt
Whole genome sequencing (WGS) has the potential to report on all types of genetic abnormality, thus converging diagnostic testing on a single methodology. Although WGS at sufficient depth for robust detection of point mutations is still some way from being affordable for diagnostic purposes, low-coverage WGS is already an excellent method for detecting copy number variants ("CNVseq"). We report on a family in...
