BNGO receives Kudos from ACMG & CAP
ACMG: American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics
CAP: College of American Pathologists
ACMG calls out OGM as an “emerging technology” that can “comprehensively detect genome-wide structural variants at kilobase resolution,” supplementing karyotype, FISH and sequencing for solid-tumor workups.
CAP & ACMG Cytogenetics Committee planned action is “to define and monitor state-of-the-art and emerging technology in both conventional and molecular cytogenetics and cytogenomics,” naming methods like OGM as part of that goal.
CAP published a standalone OGM guideline, but it co-sponsors ACMG’s standards and incorporates their recommendations into proficiency testing and accreditation checklists.
