Abstract:

Currently,genetic disease screening and testing mainly rely on 2 forms of operation,laboratory developed test(LDT) and in vitro diagnostics(IVD),with slight differences in operation between countries. This review focuses on summarizing the progress of genetic disease testing in the industry and the policy support differences between China and the United States of America,and provides an outlook on the future development trends.
