Whole Exome Sequencing London – Advanced DNA Testing & Genetic Diagnosis
Analyse thousands of genes in one test. Whole Exome Sequencing helps diagnose complex conditions, uncover genetic risks, and guide personalised healthcare.
Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) London
Whole Exome Sequencing is one of the most advanced genetic tests available today. It analyses the entire coding region of DNA where most disease-causing mutations are found.
At Marylebone Diagnostic Centre, we offer private WES in London to support diagnosis of rare conditions, deeper genetic insight, and personalised treatment planning.
What Is Whole Exome Sequencing?
The exome is the protein-coding part of your genome and contains most clinically relevant mutations. WES analyses around 20,000 genes to identify rare and complex variants.
Why patients choose WES:
- Comprehensive analysis of all coding genes
- Identifies rare and hard-to-detect mutations
- Supports diagnosis when standard tests are inconclusive
- Provides a strong foundation for personalised care
Who Should Consider This Test?
WES is recommended for:
- Unexplained medical conditions
- Rare or complex diseases
- Family history of unknown disorders
- Neurological or developmental concerns
- Patients seeking advanced genetic insight
What Can Whole Exome Detect?
- Rare genetic disorders
- Neurological conditions
- Metabolic diseases
- Inherited syndromes
- Cancer-related mutations
How the Test Works
- Step 1: Blood or saliva sample collection
- Step 2: Advanced sequencing of coding genes
- Step 3: Bioinformatics interpretation of variants
- Step 4: Detailed report with optional clinical review
Benefits of Whole Exome Sequencing
