The Clinical Genomics Laboratory offers clinically validated next-generation sequencing tests for a variety of somatic and constitutional diseases.
Results from testing can provide physicians with useful information for diagnosis, prognosis and therapy.
For more detailed information on each test, follow the disease category links below or view a list of all available sequencing tests.

Ancillary Testing
Additional services are available through our affiliated laboratories at Washington University Pathology Services.
These include expert pathologic assessment of specimens including the use of histology, immunohistochemistry (IHC), immunofluorescence (IF) and electron microscopy (EM), as well as cytogenetic analyses such as karyotyping, chromosomal microarray and FISH.
