This table compares the current GTR section titles to corresponding heading in various recommendations found in the following literature:
- ACMG: American College Of Medical Genetics recommendations for standards for interpretation of sequence variations
- CAP: Clinical Laboratory Reports in Molecular Pathology, see at [1]
- JMD: Clinician Perspectives about Molecular Genetic Testing for Heritable Conditions and Development of a Clinician-Friendly Laboratory Report (Journal of Molecular Diagnostics), see at [2]
Note that GTR titles in parenthesis represnet parent sections.
