Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Hybrid capture-based next-generation sequencing of DNA has been widely applied in the detection of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). Various methods have been proposed for ctDNA detection, but low-allelic-fraction (AF) variants are still a great challenge. In addition, no panel-wide calling algorithm is available, which hiders the full usage of ctDNA based 'liquid biopsy'. Thus, we developed the VBCALAVD...
