The LightSpeed Clinical solution is a new module for QIAGEN CLC Genomics Workbench Premium that empowers clinical laboratories to perform NGS secondary analysis with high accuracy at unprecedented runtimes.
LightSpeed Clinical processes FASTQ files to produce VCF files containing single nucleotide variants (SNV), insertion–deletion mutation (InDel) and structural variant (SV) calls. The module is deployable using local computers or Amazon Web Services (AWS®) cloud and performs quality and adapter trimming, read mapping, deduplication, local realignment, quality control and variant calling.
Currently, LightSpeed Clinical supports germline pipelines. Support for somatic pipelines will be available Summer 2023.
