Reference standards for next-generation sequencing

Technical errors can hamper the interpretation of next-generation sequencing (NGS) data, which poses a major challenge for the clinical application of this technology. This Review discusses how reference standards circumvent this issue by calibrating NGS measurements and evaluating diagnostic performance of NGS-based genetic tests.
