Abstract
Mutation detection is the gold standard for the diagnosis of monogenic disorders. The advent of next generation sequencing strategies has revolutionized diagnostics in genetics.

Enormous data is generated which needs expertise for correct interpretation. The challenge is to correctly identify the causative sequence variation from the thousands of variations identified in each individual.
