Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is an incredibly useful tool for genetic disease diagnosis. However, the most commonly used bioinformatics methods for analyzing sequence reads insufficiently discriminate genomic regions with extensive sequence identity, such as gene families and pseudogenes, complicating diagnostics. This problem has been recognized for specific genes, including many involved in human disease,...
