The Retinal Dystrophy exome panel testing includes more than 200 genes that have been identified to be responsible for disorders in which retinal dystrophy is a noted feature:

Retinal Dystrophy Panel Gene List

Retinal Dystrophy exome panel testing is the most cost-efficient and precise approach to diagnostic testing as there is overlap between phenotypes and the lack of characteristic “other” features in many instances.   Study of the panel genes from the DNA of a single individual allows us to focus on variants reported as pathogenic in the past, on those with a very low population frequency, with nucleotide conservation across species and with likely pathogenic consequence. When variants of unknown significance are identified by panel testing, DNA is requested from first degree relatives to interrogate the significance of the variant. There is no charge for added studies used to aid in interpretation of a sequence change found in the index case.

Reflex to Exome Sequencing:  If a causative or potentially causative variant is not identified by this exome panel test it is possible to order a REFLEX clinical exome.   The full exome sequence will be analyzed as is done for our Clinical Exome Sequencing test using the data obtained from the exome panel test.  Submission of parental samples, and or other family members may be needed to assist in the interpretation of sequence variants.

For the patient with a rare phenotype, when the constellation of clinical findings is not recognized as part of a known syndrome, yet the clinician investigator would like to investigate a particular set of genes that are known to contribute to a particular phenotype, “panel on demand” sequencing is a cost-efficient and precise approach to diagnostic testing for rare inherited disease. Examples of panels might include a neurodevelopmental gene panel, hereditary cancer panel, cardiomyopathy gene panel or others. Study of the custom panel of genes from the DNA of a single individual is used to identify sequence variants with a very low population frequency, with nucleotide conservation across species and likely pathogenic consequence. Testing of a family trio facilitates filtering of sequence variants and reduces the number of potential candidates by looking for the same sequence alteration in an unaffected parent(s).

The NCGL offers several options for Panel on Demand based on the number of genes in the Panel:

• Hyper Panel on Demand (201-500 genes)
• Super Panel on Demand (101-200 genes)
• Mega Panel on Demand (11-100 genes)
• Micro Panel on Demand (2-10 genes)
• Single Gene Sequencing
