Steven Stone of Argent Global Services addresses next-generation sequencing (NGS) in precision oncology, highlighting its operational challenges and workflow efficiency. A study compared amplicon-based NGS to hybrid-capture workflows in solid tumor analysis, revealing that the Oncomine Dx Express Test significantly reduces turnaround times and labor costs. Automation simplifies processes, making it suitable for resource-limited labs. The findings stress the importance of efficient NGS workflows to meet rising oncology testing demands and enhance patient outcomes.
