Abstract excerpt
Several methods have recently been proposed for identifying copy number alterations (CNAs) in genomic DNA from tumors, using the signals arising from two-color genotyping technologies. Although copy number estimation in normal tissue has been well studied, methods developed for normal tissue tend to perform poorly when applied to tumors, due to normal cell contamination, varying levels of ploidy, and genetic...
