Cancer Progression is often driven by an accumulation of genetic changes but also accompanied by increasing genomic instability. These processes lead to a complicated landscape of copy number alterations (CNAs) within individual tumors and great diversity across tumor samples. High resolution copy number profiling is being used to profile CNAs of ever larger tumor collections, and better...
