Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To compare the efficacy of whole genome sequencing (WGS) with targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) in the diagnosis of inherited retinal disease (IRD). DESIGN: Case series. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 562 patients diagnosed with IRD. METHODS: We performed a direct comparative analysis of current molecular diagnostics with WGS. We retrospectively reviewed the findings from a diagnostic NGS DNA test for...
