LOINC code69548-6
nameGenetic variant assessment
descriptionWhere testing scenarios are intended to assess the prescence or absence of a known set of DNA variants (e.g. tumor profiling using genotyping technology), then the Genetic Variant Assessment is used in conjunction with answer list supports structured communication of these findings. Of note, 'No Call' is different from 'Absent', because 'No Call' did not result in the determination of the marker's presents or absents. This may be due to test failure or specimen specific context which renders the test ineffective.
