What is the power of a genomic multidisciplinary team approach? A systematic review of implementation and sustainability

Due to the increasing complexity of genomic data interpretation, and need for close collaboration with clinical, laboratory, and research expertise, genomics often requires a multidisciplinary team (MDT) approach. 

Conclusion: While there are major gaps in evidence, the studies reviewed all point towards the benefits of the genomic MDT and a need for such an approach for more effective and efficient patient diagnosis and management. The MDT harnesses improved collaboration and discussion of complex clinical scenarios and genomic results (especially for VUS) for improved diagnostic rate and patient care.
