What the procedure involves.
Complete sequencing of the entire human genome including coding and non-coding regions for comprehensive genetic analysis. China's genomics centers including BGI offer clinical-grade whole genome sequencing with advanced bioinformatics at globally competitive pricing. Provides the most complete genetic information available for complex diagnostic cases.
Step by step.
Genetic Counseling
Comprehensive pre-test counseling covering scope, potential findings, incidental results policy, and data storage considerations.
Sample Collection
Blood sample collection for high-quality DNA extraction suitable for whole genome sequencing.
Genome Sequencing
High-coverage (30x) whole genome sequencing with structural variant detection and copy number analysis.
Clinical Interpretation
Expert geneticist interpretation focused on clinical indication, comprehensive variant report, and counseling session.
- Most comprehensive genetic test covering coding and non-coding regions
- Detects structural variants and copy number changes missed by exome sequencing
- China's BGI offers world-leading sequencing capacity at lower cost
- One-time test that can be reanalyzed as medical knowledge advances
- Large amount of data requires expert interpretation
- Many non-coding variants have unknown clinical significance
- Longer turnaround time than targeted testing
- Data storage and privacy considerations for complete genome
