Variant Interpretation:
Will the lab re-contact the ordering physician if variant interpretation changes? Help
Yes. The presence of a VUS is reported, and the details are available upon request. All VUS and likely pathogenic variants are reviewed bi-annually for updates in the scientific literature. As part of the Color service, we will attempt to recontact the provider and/or the person that was tested if any … View more
