Abstract excerpt
The diagnostic deployment of massively parallel short-read next-generation sequencing (NGS) has greatly improved genetic test availability, speed, and diagnostic yield, particularly for rare inherited disorders. Nonetheless, diagnostic approaches based on short-read sequencing have a poor ability to accurately detect gene conversion events. We report on the genetic analysis of a family in which 3 fetuses had...
