Summary of Key New Features

New Features

Custom Report Templates

We have introduced new functionality that allows users to create much more customizable report templates tailored to specific use cases. Templates can now include:

  • Linking to specific analyses
  • Fixed text to be included in every report
  • Editable sections
  • Highly customizable variant and sample information tables
  • Automatically populated reference section
  • Highly customizable headers, footers, and logos

This allows users to build reports for specific use cases such as gene panels, exomes or carrier screening. Further information on how to create report templates can be found here

 

SpliceVault

SpliceVault is a valuable resource for variant interpretation. Based on a dataset of 335,000 RNA-seq samples, it describes rare, unannotated splicing events that have been detected at human splice junctions. These events can indicate the type of splicing disruption that a variant may cause.

 

 

QC report in JSON format in VarSome Clinical API

We have introduced a new API endpoint that allows users to extract the QC report in JSON format. This was previously only available as a PDF. JSON format now makes these programmatically accessible to facilitate integration into analysis pipelines.

 

Variant Table Access Before Analysis Completion

Users can now access the variant table while the analysis is still in progress. A banner above the table indicates the current status and informs users that some actions may be temporarily unavailable until the analysis is complete. More information about this can be found here.

Support

We hope you find these improvements helpful. We would love to hear any feedback and suggestions you may have. Support is available as usual from support@varsome.com.
