A review of health economic studies comparing traditional and massively parallel sequencing diagnostic pathways for suspected genetic disorders

Abstract:

Genetic disorders are clinically diverse and genetically heterogeneous, and are traditionally diagnosed based on an iterative phenotype-guided genetic assessment. However, such diagnostic approaches are long (diagnostic odysseys are common), misdiagnoses occur frequently, and diagnostic rates are low. Massively parallel sequencing (MPS) technologies may improve diagnostic rates and reduce the time-to-diagnosis for patients with suspected genetic disorders. However, MPS technologies are expens...
