Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Multi-region sequencing (MRS) has been widely used to analyze intra-tumor heterogeneity (ITH) and cancer evolution. However, comprehensive analysis of mutational data from MRS is still challenging, necessitating complicated integration of a plethora of computational and statistical approaches. FINDINGS: Here, we present MesKit, an R/Bioconductor package that can assist in characterizing genetic ITH...
