# Manually add variant from IGV

You can [add a variant](/emedgene/emedgene-analyze-manual/reviewing_a_case/analysis-tools-tab-beta-v100.39.0+/variant_table/manually_add_variants_to_a_delivered_case.md) to a case directly from the visualization tool.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Click "Add Variant" at the top right of the visualization tool.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
In a popup window, fill the variant details.

By default, the variant type is set to CNV, and the chromosome and coordinates are pre-filled based on the region currently in view. To adjust the span of the suggested coordinates, zoom in or out in IGV accordingly.

You can modify the variant type and genomic coordinates.
{% endstep %}
