In clinical research, the use of multiple genomic assays is common. However, the fragmented nature of analyzing each assay with a separate software program often leads to inefficiencies and incomplete insights. VIA™ software has been meticulously designed to address this challenge by simplifying and streamlining the sample-to-report workflow for optical genome mapping (OGM), serving as a cohesive platform to consolidate various analysis workstreams. As an integrated software, VIA offers a comprehensive sample-to-answer solution in a centralized environment, supporting standalone data analysis for OGM, next-generation sequencing (NGS), and microarray data—making it the only software compatible with all three of these methods in the market.
This platform-agnostic capability allows laboratories to establish a unified framework, streamlining analysis workflows, and consolidating knowledge across different technologies within a single system. VIA software goes beyond this by offering the ability to combine sample data output from multiple technologies, providing a holistic understanding and context derived from each technique.
Experience the efficiency gained by analyzing data generated by multiple technologies using a single software interface and databasing system. VIA software enables leveraging historical array data to inform the interpretation of an OGM variant, saving valuable time for analysts. With each new sample analyzed, VIA’s database grows, enhancing its intelligence and comprehensiveness over time.
When transitioning between platforms, the concern of losing access to historical data and knowledge is significant. VIA software ensures a seamless transition between technologies, maintaining a unified repository for knowledge across platforms. This flexibility empowers analysts to switch between different genomic technologies while utilizing a single software for cytogenomic analysis, ensuring continuous efficiency.
Combining NGS and OGM data types bridges the gap between cytogenetic and molecular genetic lab data, providing a more powerful insight into variant detection. VIA software allows the simultaneous analysis of sequence variants from an NGS panel and OGM data, offering a comprehensive review of sequence variants, copy number variations, and allelic events for more thorough contextualization of genomic variation. The integrated analysis of OGM and NGS together yields insights that may be missed when analyzed independently, facilitating the generation of a single, comprehensive summary report.
In conclusion, VIA revolutionizes complex data analysis workflows by consolidating different data types into one centralized platform. This allows users to view and analyze data from multiple technologies in a simplified and integrated workflow, uncovering synergistic events that might be overlooked when using different software for each modality. Elevate your genomic analysis with VIA software.
