Our optimized sample-to-report workflows bring clarity to variants associated with rare and inherited pediatric diseases

Enhance your pediatric genetic testing research with advanced analytics and dedicated features
Quickly and accurately discover variants associated with pediatric diseases in a single sample-to-report workflow with the SOPHiA DDM™ Platform complemented by Alamut™ Visual Plus.

Comprehensive variant filtering

Pediatric genetic testing can detect thousands of variants for interpretation. To facilitate the prioritization of variants, benefit from time-saving SOPHiA DDM™ features such as Familial Variant Analysis for the determination of inheritance mode, Virtual Panels, Cascading Filters, and guideline-driven classification.

Accurate CNV detection

The SOPHiA DDM™ Platform supports the accurate detection of Copy Number Variations (CNVs) at exon-level resolution alongside Single Nucleotide Variants (SNVs) and Indels in a single experiment, facilitating a fast and cost-effective workflow for pediatric genetic testing.

Mitochondrial DNA detection

In a single workflow, the SOPHiA DDM™ Platform analyzes variants in mitochondrial DNA alongside SNVs, Indels, and CNVs in nuclear DNA. Sophisticated algorithms address the unique challenges associated with the mitochondrial genome such as the variable amount of mitochondrial DNA and heteroplasmy, to identify disease-associated variants from pediatric genetic testing.

Applications for every workflow

Our Pediatric Disease Applications leverage the analytical capabilities of the SOPHiA DDM™ Platform for accurate and streamlined variant detection and assessment from pediatric genetic testing.

Exome Applications

Our broad range of comprehensive exome applications allow a deep exploration of clinical and whole exomes, including the mitochondrial genome. Virtual panels in the SOPHiA DDM™ Platform limit interpretation to a subset of genes for quicker initial screening of variants.
