Test Overview & Methodology
This comprehensive genomic analysis using Illumina HiSeq 2x150 bp paired‑end sequencing delivers 20 GB of high‑quality data, optimized for detecting single nucleotide variants, copy number changes, and structural rearrangements. Ideal for oncology biomarker discovery, rare disease research, and population genomics in the UAE. The test requires a peripheral whole blood sample (5–10 ml) collected in EDTA tubes or a buccal swab for non‑invasive collection.

Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
“As a Consultant Medical Genetics, I emphasize that high‑coverage whole genome sequencing provides comprehensive variant detection, but all findings must be correlated with clinical presentation and family history. Incidental findings may arise; we provide dedicated post‑test genetic counseling to ensure informed decision‑making. The DHA‑licensed and ISO‑certified pipeline used by DNA Labs UAE guarantees data quality and patient safety.”
