High-throughput sequencing has drastically changed the research of genes responsible for genetic disorders and is now gradually introduced as an additional genetic diagnostic testing in clinical practice. The current debates on the emerging technical, medical and ethical issues as well as the potential optimum use of the available technology are discussed.
高通量测序极大地改变了对导致遗传疾病的基因的研究,目前正逐渐作为一种额外的基因诊断检测方法引入临床实践。本文讨论了当前关于新出现的技术、医学和伦理问题以及现有技术潜在最佳用途的争论。
