NIH Genetic Testing Registry

GTR is a freely accessible database of orderable clinical and research genetic test descriptions and the laboratories that provide them. Scope includes molecular, biochemical and cytogenetic human genetic tests as well as serologic and molecular microbe tests. Test descriptions include the test targets and the conditions the tests are for, methodology, clinical and analytical validity, clinical utility and ordering information. The goals of GTR are to bring transparency to the testing field, support clinicians ordering tests and advance the public health and research into the genetic basis of health and disease.

GTR是一款免费开放访问的数据库，收录可开具医嘱的临床及研究用基因检测项目描述，以及提供对应检测服务的实验室信息。其覆盖范畴涵盖分子、生化与细胞遗传学类人类基因检测项目，同时涵盖血清学及分子微生物检测项目。检测项目描述内容包含检测靶标、检测适配病症、检测方法、临床与分析有效性、临床应用价值以及开单相关信息。GTR的设立宗旨为提升检测领域的透明度，为临床医师开具检测医嘱提供支持，并推动公共卫生事业以及针对健康与疾病遗传基础的相关研究。
