Problem
Many individuals with rare diseases remain undiagnosed due to the complexity of genetic conditions and limitations in traditional diagnostic approaches. Identifying the underlying genetic cause is challenging, often requiring extensive testing and analysis. Even after initial genetic testing, some cases remain unresolved, leaving patients and clinicians without a clear diagnosis.
Solution
3billion offers comprehensive genetic testing services, specializing in whole exome sequencing (WES) to identify genetic variants associated with rare diseases. The company provides reliable testing solutions to aid in the diagnosis of undiagnosed genetic conditions. To address unresolved cases, 3billion performs continuous reanalysis of cases where initial testing did not reveal disease-causing variants. This iterative approach increases the likelihood of identifying the genetic basis of the condition, providing patients and healthcare providers with valuable diagnostic information.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes healthcare providers, medical geneticists, and hospitals seeking to diagnose patients with suspected rare diseases.
Features
- Whole exome sequencing (WES) to detect a broad range of genetic variants.
- Continuous reanalysis of unresolved cases to identify previously missed variants.
- Buccal swab sample collection option, eliminating the need for blood samples (excluding 3B-GENOME).
- Medical genetics team available to answer questions about test results.
- User-friendly ordering process with guidance provided from ordering to sample collection.
