Abstract
Massively paralell sequencing have been applied in seveal fields in clinical setting in the past few years. Most research and application focus on genetic diseases and cancer. Since 2011, the sequencing-based noninvasive prenatal testing has been successfully intergrated into current prenatal screening and dianosis workflows in the clinical practice and brings a revolutionarily change in healthcare-related industrials. With the rapidly development of ultra high-throughput and faster sequencing technologies and increasing mature regulation and standarlization on relative commercial kits or products, it will be very possible to expand quickly to more clinical fields and intergrate deeply into current medical service workflows.
