Abstrakt: Expanded carrier screening (ECS) gene panels have several limitations including variable content, current knowledge of disease-causing variants, and differing reporting policies. This study evaluated if the disease-associated variants identified in affected neonates who screened positive by California newborn screening (NBS) for an inherited metabolic disorder (IMD) by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) would likely be reported by ECS gene panels.
