Turnaround time
Complete analysis: 8 weeks / Targeted analysis: 4 weeks
Method
- Sequence analysis of all coding exons and flanking intron-exon boundaries
- Deletion/duplication analysis (MLPA)
- Exome analysis (WES or WGS data)
Analysis of the whole CFTR gene is performed with WES, interpreting only variants (nucleotide and copy numbers) in this gene. It is possible to request a WES gene panel at the same time or afterwards. Please note the turnaround time of the WES panel. For targeted analysis of familial abnormalities, Sanger sequencing or MLPA is used.
