AimsNext-generation sequencing is being implemented in the clinical laboratory environment for the purposes of candidate causal variant discovery in patients affected with a variety of genetic disorders. The successful implementation of this technology for diagnosing genetic disorders requires a rapid, user-friendly method to annotate variants and generate short lists of clinically relevant variants of interest. This report describes Omicia’s Opal platform, a new software tool designed for variant discovery and interpretation in a clinical laboratory environment. The software allows clinical scientists to process, analyze, interpret and report on personal genome files.
