Genetic information is complex, and it is not always easy to understand what test results mean or the appropriate actions for individuals who test positive. Invitae’s results guides outline management options that patients and their healthcare providers may choose to consider.
Invitae’s results guides were developed by experts and are based on standard medical management guidelines and published data. Of note, these result guides are general and are not specific to an individual’s genetic test result or personal and family history. They do not represent medical advice and are not meant to replace care by an appropriate health care provider. They are intended to be a resource for starting the conversation about what to do next.
These guides are automatically appended to reports, unless you choose to exclude them by logging in to your Invitae account and visiting the settings page.
