Abstract excerpt
Clinical short-read exome and genome sequencing approaches have positively impacted diagnostic testing for rare diseases. Yet, technical limitations associated with short reads challenge their use for the detection of disease-associated variation in complex regions of the genome. Long-read sequencing (LRS) technologies may overcome these challenges, potentially qualifying as a first-tier test for all rare...
