Opt‐in for secondary findings as part of diagnostic whole‐exome sequencing: Real‐life experience from an international diagnostic laboratory [PDF]
Background Discussion about the risks and benefits of offering secondary findings as part of genome‐wide diagnostics lacks real‐life data. We studied the opt‐in decisions of patients/families referred to whole exome study (WES) in Blueprint Genetics (BpG)

Actionable Exomic Secondary Findings in 280 Lebanese Participants
The expanded use of NGS tests in genetic diagnosis enables the massive generation of data related to each individual, among which some findings are of medical value. Over the last three and a half years, 280 unrelated Lebanese patients, presenting a wide
