  • RGT improves the accuracy of hereditary genetic testing via better detection and interpretation of variants. 
  • RNA data can be used as evidence both in support of pathogenicity and as clarification of benign variants.
  • RGT is an especially powerful tool for classification in moderate penetrance genes, and in the identification of novel pathogenic variant
