ACMG Guidelines

The ACMG Guidelines refer to standards established by the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics for interpreting genetic test results. They help healthcare professionals classify genetic variants as benign, likely benign, uncertain, likely pathogenic, or pathogenic. These classifications guide clinical decision-making and patient care by assessing the potential impact of genetic changes on health. By following these guidelines, medical professionals can better understand genetic risks, recommend appropriate testing, and develop tailored treatment plans for individuals based on their unique genetic makeup.
