Important Caveats for Individual Genome Sequencing (IGS)

  • IGS can be used to identify DNA variants within genes known to cause an existing condition. In addition, IGS may identify other DNA variants that appear to functionally alter genes that may play a role in an existing condition. Importantly, IGS may not reveal anything that can be implicated as potentially related to your patient’s condition.
  • IGS results are provided as a consensus sequence along with the GenomeStudio software program. No clinical interpretive information is provided by Illumina. Clinicians without expertise in sequence annotation or genome databases may have considerable difficulty counseling their patient about his or her individual sequencing results.
  • Health insurance may not cover the cost of IGS.
