临床遗传学 Cartagenia Bench Lab


Clinical-grade variant assessment for inherited disease

NGS panels, exomes, whole genomes and microarrays enable clinical genetics labs to improve the diagnostic yield and throughput to provide timely answers to referrers. To ensure clinical variant assessment happens at the highest possible standard, clinical geneticists need to have access to up-to-date knowledge bases, tools to reliably filter large numbers of variants down to relevant findings, review them against multiple inheritance hypotheses, patient phenotype, and state-of-the-art community content and knowledge – all within a traceable, clinical-grade software platform.

Easy reporting, clinical-grade solution

A template-based reporting system helps you bring together relevant content into informative, clinical-grade reports. Improve turnaround times and maintain state-of-the-art, informative lab reports with Alissa Interpret’s collaborative lab report automation tools.


Efficiently implement ACMG guidelines in your routine diagnostic setting

You can easily curate genomic variants by manually reviewing ACMG criteria according to the evidence summary provided. The combination of manual review with automated variant filtration will help you easily curate variants according to ACMG guidelines and expedite your variant interpretation workflow.

Built for clinical diagnostics

Interpret is a medical device software platform that supports your lab's accreditation and compliance through standardization, SOPs, audit trails, versioning and traceability. Regardless of whether you're working in a cytogenetics or molecular lab, Bench helps you streamline and standardize your variant interpretation and reporting workflow.

Knowledge is key
Annotation sources

Alissa Interpret provides instant access to a large body of up-to-date annotation sources and databases so you can rely on internal, community, and premium content to assist in accurate interpretation of genetic variants.

External content providers

Labs value professionally curated content and powerful tools to complement their internal knowledge base and community resources. With Cartagenia Bench Lab you can integrate a range of content and tool providers to make sure you have access to the most recent findings on genes, variants, and their effects on phenotype.

Sharing

Community efforts help assess complex cases. With the extension module Alissa Consortium labs can confidently share genetic data, clinical expertise, and case histories with colleagues in the field. We support both local and application-specific lab consortia as well as participation in public initiatives such as ClinVar, ECARUCA, and more.
