In the hereditary conditions section, and in secondary findings if you choose to receive them, Ultra reports variants classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic in the genes analysed. This classification does not apply to the other sections: genetic susceptibility, pharmacogenetics, traits, wellness and ancestry are calculated using other methods.
Variants of uncertain significance (VUS) are variants whose effects are not yet known, so they are not interpreted as causes of disease and do not appear in the standard report. If you would like to know about them, you can request the Variants of Uncertain Significance Report, a paid exploratory report that identifies VUS in genes or conditions included on the platform. A VUS must not be used to make medical decisions.
As with the entire service, Ultra information is for informational purposes and does not constitute a diagnosis. Consult your doctor before making any decision about your health.
