This panel includes targeted variants that have an established association with factor V Leiden-related thrombophilia.
The targeted variant was specifically selected for its established association with this condition. Detection of this variant may facilitate increased early-detection and prevention, as well as helping to identify at-risk family members who can pursue genetic testing and preventive measures.
All detected variants are evaluated according to American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics recommendations. Variants are classified based on known, predicted, or possible pathogenicity; however, this test only reports pathogenic and likely pathogenic variants along with interpretive comments detailing the evidence applied towards classification. Variants of uncertain significance are not reported.
