What other physicians say:

Genome scans give people considerable information about their DNA and risk of disease.

Understanding our results

We have developed a number of visual tools to communicate the genetic risk for common diseases to you and your patient. Here are explanations of each.

Condition with elevated risk

Elevated risk

Orange indicates an overall lifetime risk greater than 25 percent or risk that is more than 20 percent above average for that condition. More

No elevated risk

No elevated risk

Gray indicates an overall lifetime risk less than 25 percent or risk that is less than 20 percent above average for that condition. More

Genetic composite index

Genetic composite index

This visual shows what percent of the reference population has a score lower, the same as, or higher than your patient. More

SNP table

SNP table

The genotype for each of your patient's SNPs is presented in an information table. More

SNP bar chart

SNP bar chart

A SNP bar chart shows the relative contribution of each marker tested to your patient’s overall estimated lifetime risk. More
