NGS for (Hemato-) Oncology in Belgium: Evaluation of Laboratory Performance and Feasibility of a National External Quality Assessment Program KU Leuven
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is being integrated into routine clinical practice in the field of (hemato-) oncology to search for variants with diagnostic, prognostic, or therapeutic value at potentially low allelic frequencies. The complex sequencing workflows used require careful validation and continuous quality control. Participation in external quality assessments (EQA) helps laboratories evaluate their performance and guarantee the ...
