AbstractLarge-scale cancer genome studies suggest that tumors are driven by somatic copy number alterations (SCNAs) or single-nucleotide variants (SNVs). Due to the low-cost, the clinical use of genomics assays is biased towards targeted gene panels, which identify SNVs. There is a need for a comparably low-cost and simple assay for high-resolution SCNA profiling. Here we present our method, conliga, which infers SCNA profiles from a low-cost and simple assay.
