Abstract excerpt
Targeted deep massive parallel sequencing has been implemented in routine molecular diagnostics for high-throughput genetic profiling of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) cancer samples. This approach is widely used to interrogate simple somatic mutations but experience with the analysis of copy number variations (CNV) is limited. Here, we retrospectively analyzed CNV in 822 cancer cases (135 melanoma, 468...
