What is Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS)?
Whole Genome Sequencing reads virtually all of your DNA — not just the protein-coding exome but the regulatory and non-coding regions too — giving the most complete picture available. It's the most expensive and data-intensive option, generally used when a strong clinical suspicion of a genetic condition remains after exome sequencing didn't find a clear answer, or for specific research/comprehensive-screening purposes.
Why is Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) done?
- Reads essentially all of your DNA — coding and non-coding — and can detect many kinds of variant, including structural changes.
- The most comprehensive genetic test available; used when a genetic cause is strongly suspected but exome sequencing found nothing.
- Produces a lasting dataset that can be re-analysed as scientific knowledge grows.
Who may be advised to take Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS)?
- Patients whose exome or panel test was negative but clinical suspicion remains high.
- Complex or rare presentations where a broad search is clinically justified.
- Families and clinicians seeking the widest possible genetic evaluation.

Good to know
- It generates a very large amount of data, so interpretation takes longer — typically three weeks or more.
- It is the most expensive option and not always necessary; a geneticist can advise whether an exome is enough.
- It may produce incidental or uncertain findings, so decide beforehand what you want to be told.
