targeted sequencing

Targeted sequencing is a genetic testing method that focuses on analyzing specific areas of DNA rather than the entire genome. By selecting particular genes or regions of interest, it allows for detailed examination of those parts to identify mutations or variations related to health conditions, ancestry, or other traits. This approach is more efficient and cost-effective than sequencing everything, providing precise information about the selected regions. It is commonly used in medical diagnostics, research, and personalized medicine to quickly gather relevant genetic insights.
